Where the Veil Thins

Where the Veil Thins

In the ancient city of Luminus, where mist wraps around Gothic towers like a veil of secrets, history isn't just something you read about; it's something that watches you from the shadows.

For the young historian Arthur Pendleton, the legends of this forgotten city are merely academic curiosity. His life revolves around concrete facts and the logic found in dusty books. But for the reclusive artist Eleonora Vanick, the city's whispers are terrifyingly real. She's haunted by visions of places she's never seen and paints strange symbols that appear in her nightmares.

When a university professor mysteriously disappears, leaving behind only that enigmatic symbol painted on his office window, their worlds collide in a clash between logic and nightmare. Arthur sees in the symbol a key to forgotten folklore, while Eleonora sees the same mark that has stained her paintings with fear.

Together, they uncover a chilling truth: their city is not merely stones and history, but a fragile barrier-a thin veil-separating our world from a realm of shadow and emptiness. And this veil is beginning to tear.

An ancient, ravenous entity, dormant for centuries beneath the city's foundations, has now awakened. It doesn't simply want to pass through; it wants to devour the memories and light of our world. Worse still, it has taken a particular interest in the artist who can see it, and in the historian who is beginning to understand its secrets.

In a race against time, the scientist and the visionary must decipher a riddle left by ancient guardians. Will they be able to restore balance and strengthen the veil before darkness swallows everything they know, or will they themselves become mere forgotten whispers in the hidden history of Luminus?
