Clark Ashton Smith

In the haunting tale of "A Night in Malnéant," a nameless wanderer stumbles upon a city shrouded in mist and mystery. As he navigates its shadowy streets and encounters its solemn inhabitants, he discovers that the entire town is eerily preoccupied with the impending funeral of a woman named Mariel—a name that strikes terror into his heart. Tormented by memories of a love lost and a guilt that has followed him across time and space, he is drawn deeper into the city's labyrinth, where reality and nightmare blur. "A Night in Malnéant" is a chilling exploration of remorse, memory, and the inescapable grip of the past. Will the wanderer find peace, or will he be forever trapped in this spectral city of sorrow?
