Oubliette: First Steps in the Dark



Beneath the universe lies a castle steeped in shadow. Called Oubliette by its denizens¸ it is a vast and labyrinthine¸ with massive crumbling provinces ringed by a series of walls that stretch up to the heavens. Its inhabitants are the Forgotten: people¸ ideas¸ and even gods that have been discarded by the tangled timelines of the World of Life and left for millennia in the dark.

For some¸ the Castle is a paradise. Food grows on the walls. The air swirls with magic. Even death is not permanent¸ most of the time. For others¸ the Castle is purgatory. Gray mists stifle the daylight. Insular factions wage idiosyncratic wars. Starvation is rampant and death is the least of a person's concerns.

This volume chronicles twelve stories about a place where the body is a costume¸ belief is a weapon¸ and monsters walk as men.

In these pages¸ a young witch wages war on an emperor's dinner menu¸ a private investigator struggles to solve his own murder¸ a troll and a kitten supervise an unusual burial¸ and an expedition to an abandoned laundromat does not go as planned.

Featuring revised content from the original Kickstarter campaign and additional material commissioned by backers¸ First Steps In The Dark is a braided anthology¸ with each story weaving into the next to form a complete chronicle of the events that will happen during Year One of the World of the Forgotten.
