The Abyssal Scribe

Thrust into a cursed empire, a modern man discovers the horrifying truth: the entire imperial bureaucracy is a ritual to appease a slumbering god. Here, laws are incantations, promotions are sacrifices, and political rivals are often inhuman abominations in disguise. Armed with forbidden knowledge from another world, he must navigate this deadly game of cosmic horror, where every step up the ladder of power is a step closer to madness. He must master sanity-shattering secrets and forge fragile alliances in a court of creeping dread. As he rises from a disposable scribe to a key player, he uncovers a conspiracy that threatens to awaken the ancient evil. Can one man’s intellect rewrite the rules of a kingdom built on damnation before it’s devoured whole?
