Greed consumes the soul from "summary" of King of Pride by A. Hu

In the relentless pursuit of wealth and power, individuals often find themselves consumed by an insatiable greed that can have devastating consequences on their soul. This all-consuming desire for more, more, and always more can lead individuals down a dark path that ultimately corrupts their very essence. As individuals become blinded by greed, they lose sight of their morals and values, becoming willing to do whatever it takes to satisfy their cravings. They become ruthless in their quest for wealth, stepping over anyone who dares to stand in their way. In the end, they are left with empty hearts and hollow souls, devoid of the compassion and empathy that once defined them. Greed not only consumes the soul of the individual, but it also poisons their relationships with others. Friends and family become mere pawns in their game of acquisition, used and discarded at will. Trust and loyalty are replaced by manipulation and deceit, leaving a trail of broken bonds in their wake. Moreover, the pursuit of material wealth at all costs can lead individuals to sacrifice their own well-being in the process. They become slaves to their desires, trapped in a never-ending cycle of acquisition and consumption that leaves them perpetually unsatisfied. In their relentless pursuit of more, they lose touch with what truly matters in life, forsaking their own happiness and inner peace. In the end, those consumed by greed find themselves isolated and alone, with nothing but their riches to show for their efforts. Their souls are tarnished, their hearts hardened, and their spirits broken. The emptiness that consumes them serves as a stark reminder of the true cost of unchecked greed.
