Beschreibung
Above all of them stand the Udar.
Their first work, the Universe Yî, was and is their masterpiece. But with eternity, ambition and discord grew among the gods.
Oth, god of chaos, betrayed Alomne, goddess of the green and blue worlds, and sent his dark creatures to her planet Ithrum. A divine war broke out: Oth was punished, and Alomne sacrificed herself, but in doing so created the spheres and time axes to protect Ithrum.
Since then, peace and war have alternated on Ithrum. Now, in the 6th or Golden Age, a new conflict with Oth's shadow realm is looming.
The warrior Thion receives a secret mission that could decide the fate of Ithrum. But the ways of the gods are treacherous, and his quest becomes a disaster not only for Ithrum but also for himself.
This is what it's about: fantasy, the Kafkaesque, myth, magic, gods, epic, quest, dark forces, friendship, betrayal, absurdity, surrealism, endlessness.
This book is for readers who appreciate the atmosphere of works such as The Lord of the Rings and The Silmarillion (Tolkien), The Odyssey (Homer), The Canterbury Tales (Chaucer), Simplicissimus (Grimmelshausen) and An Imperial Message (Kafka).
The writings of the series Yî - Sagas and Myths are part of the Open Yî Project, in which co-authors can help shape the Yî universe.
