Folk Horror

Never offend the otherworldly powers — their revenge is merciless. What began in merriment soon descended into dread: the familiar world collapsed like a fragile house of cards, and from the ruins crawled something alien, hostile, and inexorable. Survival itself becomes a cruel choice — to cling to life alone, or to help friends weather the storm. And in that hour, when shadows devour the light, the veil is torn away, and the true nature of a person is revealed.

I am the Princess of Polissia. I’m ready to fulfill my duty and marry the Prince of Pelasgia for political reasons. But twelve princes—twelve grooms—have vanished, taken by a dark sorcerer who desires me and my lands. Only one remains: the thirteenth prince. And I never imagined I’d fall in love with him… just by seeing him through a magical mirror. I’m just Denis. I had no idea I was a prince in some parallel world. A fiancée? A kidnapped princess? And you want me to rescue her? Why me? I don’t believe in love, and all girls are the same. If that sorcerer wiped out my brothers so easily, I’d rather not meet him at all. I’ll explore this world a bit—and then go home. But fate has its own plans…

Dark-haired or redhead? Neither! She’s doing everything she can to leave the half-world where fairy tales and ancient legends still breathe—and return home. But fate has other plans. Inspired by Ukrainian mythology, folk tales, and forgotten legends, this magical story celebrates the power of love and the final triumph of light over darkness. Enjoy the journey!

Dragon. A legendary creature? But what if it existed, and this is confirmed by historical science? What really happened in the city several hundred years ago? The last victim of the dragon—who was she? Did she manage to escape? And can this be seen from the civilized twenty-first century? As for people... Have they changed over time? Do they still gather in packs to hunt down a single individual? Do they still betray those who trust them? Do they still find pleasure in the suffering of others? Perhaps all of this lies dormant beneath a thin veneer of civilization, ready to surface as soon as a reason appears—such as a dragon...?
