The God Dragon: The Chronicles of Bomby is an upcoming dark fantasy tragedy novel that delves into the chilling and tragic journey of Bomby, a beloved yet tormented Creeper minion pet, and his ill-fated relationship with Francine, the one-time compassionate warrior who would come to be known as the self-titled God Dragon. What begins as an innocent tale set in a whimsical and mysterious world spirals into a hauntingly dark narrative of unchecked ambition, psychological decay, and ultimate betrayal.
Regarded as the darkest piece in the CxB mythos, it is expected to explore unflinchingly mature themes, including psychological horror, power's corrupting influence, cycles of abuse, and the psychological toll of witnessing a loved one's fall from grace. With an intensity rarely seen in works based on modded Minecraft lore, the novel seeks to bring out the raw emotional complexity of characters, exploring the impact of abuse and genocide through the eyes of a once-innocent creature who must reckon with the tragic aftermath of his "mother's" choices.
Planning for the novel started back in 2024 and is set to fully begin development sometime in 2028, the novel aims for an early 2029 release, promising readers an unprecedented journey into tragedy and extreme violence.
Plot Synopsis
Trivia
- The entire idea of "The God Dragon" comes right from a modded Minecraft playthrough with Cora and his friends.
- Despite its origins being from Minecraft, the novel is without a doubt one of the darkest pieces of media that comes from the CxB mythos, not from its violence but rather its elements and deeper meanings.
- The character behind Francine's descent into madness originates from Cora's personal goals of being the strongest in the server and always having the best armor and weapons while everyone usually was far below him in terms of power.
