Godking is the story of a wounded war veteran (Ranald Machrin) who has recently been invalided out of the Marines. He has returned to his island home after his mother died and is trying to come to terms with his military life being over and the need for him to organise his late Mother’s estate. As he settles back into his old life with his childhood friends he begins to uncover some darkness from his past he had forgotten while he travelled the world. His family held a dark secret that wasn’t so secret. One of his ancestors was an evil king who ruled through black magic and fear. It was rumoured that he committed human sacrifices to bring victory in battles.
It isn’t long before Ranald is having nightmares and hallucinations where he thinks his ancestor is talking to him trying to tempt him into releasing him into the modern world. Ranald has been receiving treatment for post traumatic stress disorder and is uncertain whether he is hallucinating or if he is facing an evil spirit trying to possess him.
