'Where no hope is left, is left no fear.'

 

Embark on a journey of enlightenment and discovery where the ordinary and the extraordinary collide as two men fight to make sense of the surreal and collapsing world around them.

 

Set beyond the realms of reality, Tapestry of Fear follows the existential plight and psychological turmoil of two characters - Franklin, a paranoid realist, and Schroeder, a pragmatic fantasist - as they attempt to unravel the events that take place in a world where 'time passes so quickly that it no longer exists.'
