People who live on volcanic islands are frequently living on a ticking timebomb. When that volcano blows its stack, you never know if you’re going to get a gentle, easily-avoidable stream of lava, or an apocalyptic explosion. With such explosive power on their doorstep, the natives of many of these islands figure that the volcano is home to a FIRE GOD, who can be kept safely dormant through proper care and feeding.
The volcano god’s favorite food? Virgins, of course.
