Another Possibility for the Worldline

A declaration, the beginning of everything:

As you turn to the first page of this book, or perhaps click on this article, it may be worth saying that this was part of a book before it was published online.

These are multiple stories that take place in the same world, some connected and others unrelated.

The setting is based on the Cthulhu Mythos, but this isn't a tabletop role-playing campaign. Due to various lingering issues, it mixes many Eastern and Western mythologies, with plenty of original elements and creative liberties.

This work expands extensively on the original setting. I can even say without hesitation that the world of ability users is just the tip of the iceberg. However, the original plot is unlikely to be followed closely. According to friends, this is a collection of sinister, bizarre, and downright crazy stories. It features ability users who are literary figures. Their personalities lean toward their real-life counterparts, while still respecting the setting and their original backstories. The world is fictionalized to some extent.

The main cast will mostly be foreign literary figures. Yokohama is tentatively mentioned in the second story and will appear properly in the fourth.

This book consists of several stories. Some are canon-compliant and some aren't, though that's hard to judge according to the setting.

Also, I believe Pushkin wasn't ugly.

Includes Pushkin x Gogol, Rimbaud x Verlaine, and other pairings. (So it's pure love, though in truth there's a bit of everything.)

The author is quite busy in real life, so updates are practically monthly.

That's all for now. I look forward to your comments, and please point out anything I've gotten wrong. Hope you enjoy reading.
