Or is there actually no such thing as the Black Death, and the horrific and mysterious goings-ons are actually caused by something else entirely... something... or someone...?

Throughout the novel, the outer action is skillfully interwoven with the spiritual paths the two novices walk. While the older brother submerges himself in the teachings of Buddhism and struggles to detach himself from all earthly bonds, the younger brother finds himself increasingly embroiled in the political struggle of the people of Tibet as they fight for their freedom.

You certainly have a knack for writing exceedingly compelling blurbs.
Also, your icon is lovely.

Absolutely, the lack of punctuation would make me want to scream. I think it's a relatively short story, though, at least as stream of consciousness tales go - no longer than 30,000 words or so!

But then his older sister is murdered, and he finds himself drawn into a gang despite himself. To his own horror, he discovers that he is able to turn himself into a killer, and that he can find some measure of personal fulfillment in the companionship and admiration of the other gang members.

The real protagonists of this novel are secrets and lies. The devastating and incalculable effect of lies is traced clearly - like ripples spreading out across a pond, small lies take on a life of their own as the liers attempt to keep from being found out, leading to larger and larger deceptions. The larger the deception grows, the more vital it is that it not be found out; in the end, the murder is the inevitable and inescapable consequence of what started as no more than a little, inconsequential white lie.

The characters in the game are concepts of reality such as 'anger' or 'neon'... your story description reminded me very much of that!

No, I don't know "Nobilis", but I love role-playing games in general and will definitely check it out (ah, if only I had as much free time as fascinating things to do with it...). Thank you very juch for the link!
