(Continuation of the book "Event Horizon. The Dark Middle Ages")
"Event Horizon. When Stars Die"
The story spans the Victorian era and other realities - living worlds with their own nature, cultures, and laws, where the very fabric of life resonates differently than on Earth. There, light can be lethal, and darkness may be the only thing capable of giving hope.
This is not merely a journey through worlds.
It is a journey through destinies that cannot be escaped
and wounds that cannot be forgotten.
There are worlds where fate is a thin thread
that can be severed.
There are worlds where fate is a choice paid for in blood.
And there are worlds where even fate itself
fears to speak the names of those who must live.
When light disappears, darkness does not come.
History comes -
and it demands sacrifice.
Event Horizon is an epic about those who cannot hide from themselves.
About those born of light,
and those who rise from darkness -
yet still seek a way to remain alive
without becoming monsters.
There are no characters who desire greatness.
Only those forced to carry it like chains.
Their fears are louder than weapons,
their choices heavier than battles,
their love - more dangerous than any magic.
Against collapsing skies, dying worlds, and civilizations that have forgotten their names,
every hero takes a step
that makes reality itself tremble.
No one here is born to be central.
Each is the center of their own tragedy.
The one who fears the power flowing through his veins.
The one who fears his own weakness.
The one who runs from the past -
and the one the past finds even in other worlds.
The one who tries to save others,
and the one who knows that sometimes salvation is the worst form of destruction.
Their voices carry pain,
their footsteps carry prophecy,
their mistakes carry the breath of gods.
Can one bear light without burning?
Can one love without destroying?
This is not a story about war.
Nor a story about the end of times.
It is a story about the cost -
the price paid by those
who dare to look into the deepest darkness
and ask:
"Why do we live, if stars die all the same?"
