Coles Birth of the Jab: Devil, #2 at Bayshore Shopping Centre in Ottawa, ON
*Product information may vary - to confirm product availability, pricing, shipping and return information please contact Coles
In 1649, French colonizers greet the generous Carib people of Grenada with open arms—and secret orders for genocide. From the ashes of a massacre and a desperate, sacrificial leap from a cliff, a curse is born into the soil.
Years later, enslaved Africans are brought to work the conquered land, their suffering a constant, brutal offering. With each lash of the whip, each act of defilement, a shadow gathers on Hill Piton, drinking their pain. It is a passive, growing hunger born of unspeakable cruelty.
When a child is sentenced to death for stealing bread to survive, that hunger awakens. The shadow rises—a being of darkness with eyes of fire and ocean, and lips stained with blood. It is "the Jab." The "Diable Diable." The living vengeance of a people. In one night of horrific, targeted slaughter, it purges the plantation of its masters, freeing the enslaved and marking the island forever.
This is the origin story of a legend, a tale of how paradise was stolen, how a people were broken, and how their collective anguish forged a monster that would become the eternal, sleeping guardian of Grenada.
