Description

In all stories, even the most fantastical or absurd, there exists a grain of truth. Some such tales are those of fancy, born from minds of great creativity and intrigue. Others, come from places of superstition, an attempt to rationalize terrors both internal and external. Regardless of origin, though, all share a grain of truth in their origin.

When humanity began its steps into a truly modern age, fables and fairytales were left behind, left to fade away. With them, went all whom the tales were built around as well, leaving only a brave new world with humans. The age of magic had come to an end.

Until now, that is.

The Old Powers have begun to return, finding a world where faith has waned, and where science reigns supreme.They found a world ripe with prey, prey with whom to play their games.

It’s too bad none of the Old Powers realized that in the modern day, reality isfarstranger than fiction. Their return is not met with fear and dismay, but rather overwhelmingapathy.

Another great fic by Fuggman, truly captures the feeling of not caring one bit in the face of the extrodinary! Although it seems to be shaping up in a similar way to "Born From Caution", where a man meets a magic being and becomes friends with it, it will be very cool to see how that magic interacts with our world, intead of the other way around in his other fics.

So far, I really like what I've read. It's a cool, fresh idea that I haven't seen before. It's a promising start, and I look forward to seeing how the narrative unfolds.
However, I must admit, the slow updates make the wait quite frustrating.
P.S. I already ship them. Amen

One chapter and a prologue in, I can safely say that I'll be looking foward to more. I can't say too much, as it's still very early, but it flows well, the world feels interesting, and prose is great.
Prim is fantasic so far. Great take on a demon.

Loving the concept behind this - clueless about the modern world demon teams up with depressed office worker after magic starts to re-enter the world. If it continues on as good as the start this will be one of my favourites. Good quality writing and some great characters make this enjoyable.

Promising so far, giving it such a high review because I'm a sucker for urban fantasy settings and Fuggman is a good author.I'm looking forward to seeing how the protagonist interacts with the conceptual darkness wolf and how humanity in general screws with all manner of horrors, it's bound to be fun.
