Once I was a god. Worshiped. Revered. The huddled masses cast themselves at my feet, heads bowed and eyes wide. Save us, they begged. Spare us, they pleaded. And, fool that I was, I tried.

They called themselves The Unknown and revelled in their own omnipresence. Some considered them to be modern-era Robin Hoods, righting wrongs and becoming the mildly demented but impossible-to-quell voice of the working class. Others considered them to be menaces, or a sign of the fast-approaching breakdown of comfortably civilized society as it was known. The only societal constant that had thus-far outlasted it was the sport known simply as Wargame. To those who supported The Unknown, it seemed as though it was the Holy Grail. The last insolent landmark of an older time.

A Gift in the Dark is a compilation of short works, many based around old myths and legends, and starts with a tale of a miner's descent into madness, history and legend, drifts through darkness, past a retelling of Red Riding Hood, up a crane, and along to the end of the world.

A bone chilling prophecy will turn him into a seemingly power hungry villian, but what are his real motives for the atrocities he is committing?
