Description

Is a person merely the product of where they fall, or of the choices they make in the course of becoming?

Within the body of a young boy struggling to survive amid the ruins of war, a modern consciousness awakens. Alek carries the weight of two pasts: the trauma of loss and the tempered judgement born of lived experience.

This is a merciless world.Power stands before mercy.

And yet a human being is not merely the consequence of circumstance.

Before Alek lie two paths:To wield knowledge as an instrument of dominion, or to bear it with responsibility.

Goodness here is not a single moment of resolve;

Character does not emerge fully formed.It develops through resistance, failure, and perseverance.

Note:The world-building draws upon a Mediterranean climate, while culturally it is influenced by Luwian traditions alongside European values.
