Salt in the Wound
04/07/25 • 22 min
In the shadow-haunted hills beyond Zeyvan, the salt wind stirs—and Shirin knows the wound has begun to open again. Haunted by a forgotten scar and an ancient bargain, she descends into the ruin where memory speaks in riddles and salt remembers everything. But to reclaim what was lost, she must pay a price in sorrow—and learn that some wounds are not meant to heal.
A folk-horror tale from Avestara, where myth and memory are never truly buried.

Red Man of Mehrak
In the blood-dust streets of dying Mehrak, swordsman Kavadh is tasked with rescuing a stolen girl—only to find she is no ordinary captive, but a dreamer marked by ancient gods. Beneath the crumbling city sleeps a forgotten power, and as Kavadh descends into catacombs of cultists and salt-born horrors, he must choose: kill the girl, save the city... or open a door that was never meant to be unsealed.
The Red Man of Mehrak is a myth-soaked tale of sword and sorcery, whispered curses, and a gate that breathes in the dark.
