The Dark

ISBN: 1-888-906-28-6 — ORDER — CHECKOUT —
Every Known Worlds peasant
and priest knows to fear the unseen powers of
the Dark, the nemesis of the Empyrean Light.
So why do so many adventurers seek out the unknown,
unexplored regions of space, risking their lives
and souls for material gain? Are they insane?
Stupid? Or are they fearless foes of ignorance
and superstition? Perhaps all of these things
at once.
Into the Dark provides
five meaty dramas and numerous short adventures
that pit characters against the unknown, testing
their mettle in a crucible of terror or triumph
- only they can choose which it will be. This
book features:
• "Thorn Manor":
An addled old noble refuses to abandon his ancestral
mansion before the threat of terraforming cataclysms.
Can the rumors of an ancient treasure be true?
And if so, can anyone find it before the planet
swallows the place?
• "Dark Liner":
A damaged luxury liner floats helplessly past
the jumpgate into the Dark Between the Stars,
taking with it the only known copy of a holy
scripture. Can anyone rescue the relic before
the ship succumbs to forces beyond mortal ken?
• "Love's Labors":
A love-smitten noble seeks aid in winning the
hand of a beautiful lady, but he must first achieve
three nigh-impossible tasks.
• "The Ancestor's
Tomb": The sins of House Li Halan's past
awaken to haunt the present. Only the courageous
- or foolhardy - can imprison the terror and
escape the tomb alive.
These tales and more are
found inside this terrifying tome.
