Description

They say dragons hoard gold. But this one hoards the walls of reality itself. Maalintryuul is a Shadow Dragon, a solitary guardian of the fragile barriers between worlds. His existence is a lonely vigil, shunned by his own kind who see him as a terrifying anomaly rather than a protector. His sacred duty is to prevent the sanity-shattering horrors from the spaces between from unmaking everything. His isolation is shattered by Thhaaruu, a brilliant Crystal Dragon who sees not a monster, but a scientific miracle. Their encounter is cut short by the arrival of a new threat: a being of impossible geometry that has breached the planes. This entity doesn't just destroy; it rewrites physics, twisting nature into alien forms as it builds a permanent gateway for its hostile reality to invade and consume their own. Maalintryuul's raw power is useless against such a sophisticated foe. To save their world, he must overcome a lifetime of ingrained solitude and trust Thhaaruu. Together, they must forge an unprecedented alliance, blending his chaotic, dimensional energy with her precise, analytical mind. The Weight of Shadows is a breathtaking fusion of epic fantasy and cosmic horror. It’s a story where the enemy is a living equation from a dimension of madness, and the battlefield is the fabric of existence itself. This is a tale of profound connection found in the face of the void, proving that even the heaviest shadows are easier to bear when you are no longer alone.
