The Secondhand God

Aarnav_verma
Leo is an anxious office worker who is great at two things: losing things and avoiding human contact. But when he loses a critical USB drive, his quiet life is hijacked by a voice screaming in his head. That voice belongs to Locus, the forgotten God of Lost Keys and Forgotten Passwords. Downgraded and powerless, Locus is stuck sharing Leo's mind, forcing his host to perform small, obsessive acts of organization to gain "followers" and climb the divine ladder. The stakes are simple: If Locus doesn't regain his status, he will be erased—and take Leo's sanity with him. But when the ancient God of Chaos launches an attack of perfect disorder on the city’s data systems, Leo and his annoying divine roommate are the only defense. Their battle won't be fought with swords, but with flawless financial audits and perfectly corrected filing systems. Will Leo survive his divine boss, or will the world collapse due to a typo?
