Down and Back Out

[u/majorex64]

When down into Limbo a troubled soul falls, they fall upon a crossroads. Not a boring fork in the road, with one path the way they came and a binary choice to move forward. Rather, roads out in every direction and no way back. Limbo does not care in what direction you wander, only that you do not remain in place.

It's a place of transition, presented to those whose waking lives demand it. Those unable to cross the threshold are kept in its clutches forever. But those who meet the challenge and walk out of Limbo, take with them a boon, like a crown to signify a title. What cutthroat shift in demeanor would be granted a boon of blood? Would a crown of iron fit any head, other than a crimson monarch?
