Otherworldly
The mystical series "Otherworldly" consists of twelve stories representing life on the edge of two worlds: the real and the otherworldly. The characters, without going beyond the boundaries of everyday life, will constantly feel the breath of mysterious forces hiding their power behind a thin shell of visible simplicity of reality. The other is always there: it envelops the consciousness and guides the actions of people, draws them into its magical action, endowing them with supernatural abilities. Under the guidance of unknown forces, someone curses, and someone is destined to become a victim of a curse, gain or lose faith, heal or cripple the soul.
