Grimoire of Tales
Chronicles from the Voidpress Archives
These forbidden manuscripts are the work of Jens Engel. He began with Mystery in Egypt in 2023, scribing thirty pages before the ancient powers stirred. In 2025, as the veil between worlds grew thin and arcane technologies advanced, he returned to expand these cosmic horror visions with unprecedented depth and eldritch authenticity. Miskatonic University has since banned these works from their libraries, issuing a stern warning that the texts are "not to be read under any circumstance, lest the reader invite the same fate as their main actors."
Mystery in Egypt
Rowan Paysley, a detective from London, becomes entangled in the dark secrets of Cairo. In the heat of the city and the hush of the desert, a single clue points to the final missing step—but the city seems to move, pushing it away—further—into darkness. Beneath the noise and dust lies a treacherous web where every shadow hides long-buried knowledge and every choice narrows the path toward things best left unspoken.
Mystery in India
An English inspector and his Indian companion are drawn into the shadows of Mandla in the 1920s. When colonial order collides with the haunted depths of the jungle, Frank Sinclair and Anil Singh must navigate a land where abandoned railways and forgotten graveyards conceal secrets older than empire. Beside them is Tom, Frank's grey tomcat, facing the coming evil with them. In the heart of British India, every step into the jungle edges closer to a truth whispered only in dread.
Mystery in China
In the mountains of ancient China, a ruler clings to order as his kingdom teeters on the edge of chaos. Drought grips the land, strange omens blaze across the night sky, and whispers of war grow louder beyond the mist-covered borders. In a world bound by ritual and shaped by celestial signs, the court must navigate shifting alliances, silent rebellions, and the unseen forces that stir beneath the surface of tradition. Amid crumbling temples and forgotten tombs, where ancestors are honored and stars are feared, the past is never truly buried—and the future is written in constellations no scholar dares name. In an empire of silk and blood, where every choice is bound to heaven and earth, a single breath can open a gate—or seal a fate.
