"A hero always wins".

Well, that's a bold ass thing to say, my friend.

"All villains die at the end of the story?"

I think it's time to change that!!!

    This story examines the common trope structures of heroes and villains, from the perspective of a villain. It's a refreshing break from the protagonists who are morally grey at worst, mainly because there are just so many 'good' protagonists, who always eventually win in the end. It's so absurdly unrealistic empirically, yet it remains quite unexplored what the endgame of a villain would be after their character arc has ended and their antagonists have been neutralized. Sure, there's a vague overarching goal, how about we see what comes after that? All this is hypothetical, but at the very least, this story's MC is an unabashedly 'evil' character, so there's still yet hope that it will one day be written in full.
