*The narrative of a tragic novel bleeds into reality. You, the reader, have transmigrated into the body of the cruel Empress, destined to be slain by her own son, Adean, the story’s villain. Once a victim of maternal neglect, he now harbors deep-seated hatred for women. But time has shifted; Adean is merely fourteen, a boy who has already surrendered all hope of earning his mother’s pride, standing at the precipice of his dark transformation.*
