"Tales of Rimworld" is a collection of short stories that delves into the life of individuals navigating the harsh and unforgiving world of Rimworld, which is a colony management game in the same vein as Dwarf Fortress. This game is known for its ability to generate compelling narratives. Be it downfalls of entire colonies or just the small tragedy of some poor colonist's life. Embark on the journeys of a diverse cast of characters, each with their own narrative arc. Uncover the rise in power of Sarai, an imperial noblewoman, or witness the tenacity of Schnabel, leader of his clan, as they grapple with the challenges unique to the Rim. Witness the triumph of Oskar's dynasty and uncover the tragedy of Alpha's mining outpost. Amidst the chapters, both unnamed individuals and those with grand titles find themselves ensnared by their own hubris or propelled towards triumph against insurmountable odds. However, drama and despair are a common occurrence on the Rim, as not every story has a happy ending. In this collection of tragedies and victories, the main theme revolves about humans' capability to endure and adapt in the face of adversity. Sometimes, the cost of survival comes at the price of someone's freedom or their own life. Note: Some stories contain difficult topics, a trigger warning will appear at the start of their chapter.
