Description
In the crumbling kingdom of Domingrad, where fog blankets the streets and the King's presence is felt but never seen, Erlen-a lowly clerk-receives a mysterious summons to the Castle Consulate. Tasked with preserving the illusion of the King's rule, Erlen discovers a labyrinthine archive where shadows move, documents rewrite themselves, and belief holds the fragile fabric of the kingdom together. But as doubt creeps into his mind, Erlen begins to uncover unsettling truths about the Archive, the King, and his own role in maintaining a reality teetering on the brink of collapse. Will Erlen embrace the comforting lie that sustains the kingdom, or will he risk everything to confront a truth so dark it could destroy him? For fans of Kafkaesque tales, absurdist conflict, and dark moral dilemmas, The Archive of Shadows invites you into a world where belief is power, and the line between reality and illusion is dangerously thin.
