Solve Coagula A fateful encounter begets a binding agreement of confinement isolation and terror. 6COn the unforgiving coast an archaeologist makes an unsettling discovery. Un-MeÚath reaches its gripping conclusion in this unnerving final story. A note from the author: Úath is a love song to the horror genre and the ancient terrors of folk stories. It was born from a fascination of the uncanny and inadvertently became a method of exercising my own demons: fear of captivity fear of brutality fear of fertility fear of the unknown. I have always been drawn to these dark tales - perhaps this exploration is how we break fear of their grip. I hope you enjoy Úath as much as I did writing it and I look forward to exploring more unsettling territories in the future.
