The Veil of Atherion

tanjim_hussain
In a world fractured by forgotten gods and fading magic, the Veil, the barrier between realms, is unraveling. From the broken corners of time and memory emerges the Veilwalker, a masked soul bound to echoes of a forgotten past. Haunted by visions he doesn't understand and powers he never asked for, he journeys across collapsing dimensions in search of truth, and himself. Along the way, he is joined by a rogue scholar, a blade-cursed exile, and a half-spirit alchemist with a light that even the Veil cannot extinguish. Together, they face spirit-born terrors, corrupted legacies, and the ruins of what once was. But something deeper stirs behind the veil. A song once silenced begins to rise again. And with it, the world’s final threads begin to tangle.

Echoes of the Unknown - Cthulhu Collection

"Echoes of the Unknown" is a collection of horror short stories inspired by the Cthulhu Mythos and the works of H.P. Lovecraft. These tales unravel cosmic horrors that awaken mankind's deepest fears of the incomprehensible forces beyond our understanding of the world. Each story follows individuals caught in encounters with unseen entities and ancient symbols that open doors to terror and destruction. From researchers exploring dangerous ruins to ordinary people unknowingly uncovering hidden truths, the protagonists are trapped in unsolvable mysteries and face horrors far beyond their control. Strange occurrences and recurring nightmares signal the approach of an unstoppable cosmic threat. With a tense atmosphere, "Echoes of the Unknown" delves into humanity's helplessness in the vast emptiness of the universe, forcing us to confront the reality that we are but a small part of something far larger and darker. This collection is a tribute to the themes of H.P. Lovecraft, particularly his exploration of the fear of the unknowable and humanity's powerless position in a vast, mysterious cosmos. Many names, concepts, and elements in these stories are directly inspired by Lovecraft’s work, and I wish to acknowledge his profound influence. This collection is not intended to infringe upon his legacy but to pay homage to the creator of the Cthulhu Mythos, with all due respect. Any similarities to his original works are intentional and are made in the spirit of tribute and admiration...
