In the shadows of Donglong Continent lie many stories that should never be heard.
Whispers in an old mansion late at night, paper figures in an abandoned shrine, a woman in red on a street corner at midnight… These eerie tales are not fiction. They are strange happenings lurking among ordinary people. Perhaps they are forgotten grudges, or the whispers of something beyond comprehension.
Dragon Ruins: Tales of the Night collects the most widespread yet secretive urban legends of Donglong Continent. Some stem from ancient folk taboos; others from eerie coincidences where modern technology and the occult intertwine. Open this book, and you will hear:
“The Paper Bridegroom”: In the shrine of a long-abandoned mansion, two paper figures have stood motionless for seventy years, until one day a living person accidentally “lifts” the bride’s veil…
“The Night Bus”: On the last bus at three in the morning, the passengers gradually realize that this route was never meant for the living…
“Reflections in Rust Alley”: They say that somewhere in an old neighborhood, there is a mirror that can show “another you,” and that other you is trying to take your place…
“The Well of Twenty Bones”: Beneath an ancient well somewhere on Donglong Continent lie the remains of twenty beings from different races. Every full moon, the sound of their arguing rises from the bottom…
Some call these stories “ghost tales.” Others insist they really happened.
