Publisher's Synopsis
The Telling Place
In the wax-choked ruins of Estersa, silence is sacred-and flame is the only truth.
Awakened from death and memoryless, a nameless soldier rises with only a torch in hand and a voice in his ear. Beneath the city's broken altars and decaying spires, something ancient stirs-warped by grief, gluttony, and the unraveling mind of its dying god.
To reach the MindFlame and rekindle hope, he must cross a city twisted by faith, madness, and flesh. Corrupted marionettes, dreaming tithe-engines, and grotesque darklings stalk the streets. His only guide? The haunting whispers of a spirit bound to his torch-and the relics left behind by those who fell before him.
But this world was never meant to last. And some doors, once opened, do not close.
For fans of Dark Souls, Blasphemous, and The Book of the New Sun, The Telling Place is a gothic dark fantasy about identity, sacrifice, and the flickering light of defiance in a world built on silence.
Step into the dream. Carry the Flame. Remember the song.
