The Hundred Worlds
Ruin Mist Universe
A mythic world shaped by titans, fractured by war, dimmed by cleansing, and poised on the edge of a Fifth Age.
What Is Ruin Mist?
Ruin Mist is the epic fantasy universe created by Robert Stanek — a layered cosmology known as The Hundred Worlds.
It is a world where:
- Titans once walked openly from Over-Earth.
- Seven Gates bound the realms together.
- A thousand-year war reshaped history.
- Magic was hunted for five centuries.
- Dragons are not myth — only patient.
The saga spans Ages, not merely generations. Every era inherits the fractures of the last.
