"The Way can be understood, and surname can be named, but not ordinary. Without a name, it's the beginning of heaven and earth. With a name, it's the mother of all things. Well, there might be another 'name,' called the Black Goat of the Woods with a Thousand Young, hehe..." "I've achieved enlightenment! I've achieved enlightenment! HAHAHAHAHA!!!" Watching his fellow Daoist whose skull has split open, the ribcage torn, growing wings of flesh, and flying into the sky, Li Fan, with lingering fear, stops his sermon for the day. "Sigh, I can't just blabber about the Daoist skill anymore, I've driven another one mad..."

Paju, the city of hope, peace, and madness. And the story of a wizard trapped in a bizarre world. “The dead Cthulhu waits in his dreams in his dwelling place, Rlie.”

Set in the desolate and remote Antarctic wilderness, “The Abyss of the Pole” follows an international scientific expedition team, led by protagonist Jack Winter, as they embark on a secretive mission to investigate unusual signals coming from beneath the ice. The team, composed of experts in various fields such as archaeology, geology, and occult studies, initially believes they are uncovering traces of a long-lost prehistoric civilization. However, what they encounter beneath the frozen wasteland goes far beyond anything their scientific training could have prepared them for. After their helicopter crashes during an intense storm, Jack and his team find themselves stranded in the harsh, unforgiving cold of Antarctica. Struggling for survival, they attempt to salvage supplies from the wreckage and locate any remaining members of the team. Jack, alongside fellow survivor Sarah Foster, an expert in ancient cultures and esoteric knowledge, begins to notice strange occurrences in the environment—haunting visions, peculiar symbols carved into the ice, and the eerie sensation of being watched by an unseen force. As they venture deeper into the ice, the team uncovers the remains of an ancient and seemingly advanced civilization buried beneath the glacier. Their findings include cryptic stone structures, ominous relics, and symbols that eerily resemble those referenced in ancient occult texts. These relics, however, are not dormant. As the team disturbs the remains, they awaken a primordial force far older than humanity itself—one deeply tied to the Lovecraftian horrors of the Cthulhu Mythos. One by one, team members begin to succumb to madness, experiencing hallucinations and bizarre physical transformations. The boundaries between reality and nightmare blur as Jack begins to lose his grip on sanity. His journal entries, which serve as the narrative structure, become increasingly fragmented, chronicling his slow descent into paranoia and terror. Strange whispers fill the air, and Jack’s dreams are plagued by visions of cyclopean cities, non-Euclidean geometries, and grotesque, otherworldly beings. The farther they explore the hidden ice caves, the clearer it becomes that these beings are not simply dormant—they are waiting. Sarah’s deep understanding of ancient symbols hints at the presence of a sleeping entity, something akin to the mythological Great Old Ones. Jack comes to realize that their presence in Antarctica was no accident; they were drawn there by the cosmic forces lurking beneath the ice, manipulated into awakening an ancient horror that threatens not only their lives but also the fabric of reality itself. As the surviving members try to escape, they discover that the Antarctic landscape has been subtly and unnervingly altered. The ice shifts in unnatural patterns, and time itself seems to warp. The expedition’s path leads them to the heart of an ancient city submerged beneath miles of ice, where they confront the terrifying truth of their mission: the awakening of an unspeakable, godlike being that could bring about the end of humanity. In a climactic confrontation, Jack faces a choice: to sacrifice his remaining team and himself in an attempt to re-seal the ancient power or allow the entity to fully awaken and consume the world. However, the very act of opposing this cosmic force may cost him his sanity—or worse, his soul. The novel concludes on a disturbing and ambiguous note, leaving readers with an unsettling sense of uncertainty. Though Jack survives, the full extent of his mental and physical state is left unclear. His final journal entries suggest that the terror they faced in Antarctica may not be confined to that frozen continent alone. As the reader closes the book, the creeping suspicion remains: the cosmic horror still lurks beneath the surface, waiting for the right moment to emerge once more.

She was once the most dazzling astrologer in the empire, but her husband gouged out her eyes and sacrificed her to the abyss. Reborn on the wedding day, Shirahoshi vowed to make the unfaithful man pay with blood. But when she stabbed the silver blade into the groom's heart, it triggered a taboo ritual - "Finally I've waited for you, my bride." The man in a black robe walked out of the blood mist, and his bony fingers stroked her trembling lips: "Now, it's your turn to fulfill the thousand-year promise."

Shrouded in perpetual gloom, this realm harbors unnamable horrors that lurk in every shadowed crevice—abominations born of the Cthulhu Mythos, their forms anathema to mortal comprehension.
