George. The Fall of a Civilization is a standalone novel from the Kharakternyks: Stories of the Worlds series.

The Kharakternyks are the only people capable of opening portals between parallel worlds. Their mission is to explore new civilizations, forge alliances, and recover the knowledge and technologies that may one day save humanity.

George is an ordinary soldier from the Zero Plane. His assignment seems routine: escort a scientific shipment to the world of a trusted ally. But within hours, he becomes the sole witness to the collapse of a civilization that, only that morning, had stood among the most advanced societies ever encountered.

This is the story of a world that was destroyed not by an external enemy, but by something far more terrifying.
