The World Hung by a Short Tale: Book One: From the End to a Beginning

By Robert Rubin

Darkness is rising-and it has already found him.

Kopehang is the young leader of the Dwarves. He fearlessly embarks on a quest to fight an ancient evil that has begun terrorizing his people.

What begins as a journey quickly becomes something far more personal.

Because the enemy is not just out there.

It is within.

The Gmiserror-an insidious force of corruption and decay-presses against Kopehang's mind and soul, twisting truth, blurring right and wrong, and tempting him toward a path from which me may not return. Every step forward is a battle.

Every choice carries consequence.

And failure means more than death.

It means becoming the very thing he must destroy.

But in the midst of fear, uncertainty and death, Kopehang finds something unexpected-Gwen. A young warrior-maiden of the Trolls. Strong, perceptive, and unwavering, she becomes his anchor in a world unraveling at the edges. Through her, he discovers love, purpose, and the fragile hope that he may yet live.

Together they, and their companions, are pulled into a dangerous quest for the ancient Runes-artifacts whispered to hold the power to shape the fate of the world.

Blending epic fantasy with deeply personal conflict, this novella, Book One: From the End to a Beginning, is a story of awakening, love, and the first battle in a much larger war between light and darkness.
