An Under the Black Tower

The gods have gone into hiding, and glory has faded. A world once filled with miracles and magic has entered the final, crumbling stage of its decline. As the sky falls silent and the foundations of civilization begin to collapse, the land grows barren, human hearts wither, and despair follows like a shadow. In this forgotten corner, an elderly couple in the struggling village of Great Oak unexpectedly finds an abandoned baby girl. They name her An, meaning peace, the faintest hope they can cling to in this apocalyptic world. An Under the Black Tower does not dwell on the grandeur of saving the world. Instead, it focuses on individuals as insignificant as specks of dust, exploring how they seek a glimmer of light amid an inevitable end, and how they keep moving forward even after hope has been shattered. This is a requiem for the apocalypse, and a profound meditation on the resilience of human nature.
