The collection of stories “Dark Legendarium” includes works of the fantasy genre of various directions: from dark fantasy to LitRPG, from Post-Ar fantasy to fantasy detective. All worlds of the stories are united by a common multiverse of Chaos, where the familiar peoples of elves and dwarves coexist with hitherto unknown ones, and the established canonical characters of the ancient races appear in a different light. The author's goal is to convey the stories of the heroes without embellishment. Not to make the reader empathize with the characters or bring them closer to understandable images, but to tell the story “as it was” and invite readers to make their own assessment. And, of course, create an atmosphere of true fantasy, filled with mysterious magic, the clink of swords, the bitterness of defeat and the sincere joy of victory!
