Strange Happenings in Kandverro. Volume 3. In the strange land of Kandverro, people still believe they understand the systems they create-
despite the suffering they perpetuate, the truths they uncover, and the horrors waiting beyond comprehension. A creature awakens to the unbearable burden of consciousness.
despite the suffering they perpetuate, the truths they uncover, and the horrors waiting beyond comprehension. A creature awakens to the unbearable burden of consciousness.
A hidden woodland settlement finds itself hunted by monsters forged by civilisation itself.
Two sailors discover a fruit said to contain all knowledge-
and begin to question whether ignorance was ever a weakness at all.
Elsewhere, a scientist seeks to perfect life through rot and ruin...
While far beyond mortal lands, an ancient cosmic system continues its work long after the waking world has forgotten its existence... These are not stories of heroes fighting evil in righteous worlds.
They are stories of terrible creations and burdens.
They are stories of those who sought understanding-
who believed knowledge could free them,
that systems could protect them,
that progress could save them- and never once asked what such things might become when left to grow beyond control. Set in a gloomy world shaped by revolution, twisted decay, and forces older than reason itself, The Familiar That Came To Be, and Other Weird Tales of Fantasy is a collection of dark, strange, and cosmic fantasy short stories where the pursuit of meaning often creates horrors of its own... ...and where the most terrifying things are not always monsters,
but the ideas, systems, and truths that refuse to die.
