I am recommending a delightful story, drawing from African mythology (embarrassingly, I have zero idea as to which section of Africa that this mythology comes from. Please forgive my ignorance!) called "Divine Puppets"!
Originally drawn in by the title (shocker, I know), the cover art and the synopsis are nothing to scoff at. They are a great opening to a rich world that is artfully described in a unique fairytale-esque/folklore manner. The comparisons add mystery and tension, and each character feels unique.
So check it out! Give it a rating, maybe a couple of comments, heart it out the wazoo!

Divine Puppets

Selling your soul may be the price of magic in fairytales, but your free will is much more valuable to the deities of Maharnak. After all, what could be more useful than slaves following your every command? Some people choose to willingly walk this path as one of the Holy...

No, I realize Wakanda is just some nerd's fantasy and that most of that continent kind of sucks. I'm looking for wherever this mythology comes from so we can stop voodoo once and for all.

Well because the line of conversation is entertaining the puppet its time to change it up.

Why is it embarrassing to not know where in Africa a specific myth comes from? Do you study African mythology? I bet you don't know where specifically in Europe most fantasy creatures come from or even what tales they originally appeared in.

It's not really embarrassing, just something that doesn't come up in conversation that often.

Pahhhh...
Rude.

It's embarrassing because I can separate what comes from Greece, Rome, Germanic, etc., and not just classify it as European. It's like not knowing that the lobisomem is from Brazil, or the chupacabra and skinwalkers common from the southwestern parts of U.S.A and Mexico (though after looking into it, also chupacabra sightings are also found in Carribean countries. The more you learn). I haven't studied enough to remedy my ignorance for lumping it in with an entire continent that's bigger than most other continents. And I have studied African mythology during my world history classes. Anansi is like, one of the most popular tricksters in stuff that makes its way into U.S.A. The spider trickster is much like the Coyote in Navajo religion.
