<p>Meet Zanda, fresh from the prestige of becoming a Gevurah from the Fifth Sephirah, a powerful league of guardians in charge of protecting the seamless utopia of planet Malkuth and its inhabitants. Yet, her first day after graduation spirals into unforeseen chaos when she is sent to Sectum with a special task. There, she will remember that the brightness of Malkuthian society masks profound and painful wounds. As the young Gevurah confronts the responsibilities attached to her new title, she journeys to an underworld with challenges beyond the realms of her training and expectations.</p> <p>Parallel to Zanda's tale is that of Adria, a woman ensnared on the brutal survivalist life of Dictaduria, the third country in Sectum, a continent for exiled criminals five hundred years in the future. Falsely accused and living in poverty, she is trapped within a social structure that reflects the failures of defunct political regimes. Forgotten by the world that saw her grow, Adria remains hidden in plain sight, evading lethal threats while supporting her grandfather and working endless hours as an underpaid miner. This miserable status keeps going until a rainy afternoon when, while walking her usual route across the concrete city, she hears the desperate screams of a man being tortured and on the brink of his murder, decides to help.</p> <p>Volume I - The Souls in Sectum is meant to interlace the destinies of Adria and Zanda, two souls from disparate worlds, bound by a shared fate that will pave the path for new generations in a galaxy where futuristic ideals and ancient secrets collide.</p> <p>Volume II - Adriaas' Punishment serves as a prequel to The Souls in Sectum. You have the freedom to choose which volume to read first, as each will offer a distinct and unique experience while complementing each other in unexpected ways.</p> <p>With the promise of a timeless slow-burn epic that not only questions the nature of utopia but also the very fabric that weaves our universe, this is an open invitation to witness the bloom of The Omens.</p> <p>Are you ready to delve into the hidden knowledge?</p> <p>What to expect:</p> <p>-Release window Mon - Wed - Fri</p> <p>-You might notice my profile pic, volume and book cover changing every now and then, my plan is to use these outputs to update with AI generated images curated by yours truly, portraying moments of AToO, that, although not an exact vision of what's in my mind, a great help to envision this universe and share it with you.</p> <p>-AToO is not a religious story, it's a tale trying to portray a possible future, and that entitles exploring humanity from all angles, including the spiritual side of an evolved version of homo sapiens. Regardless, it's fiction, a futurologist's theory, always with the outmost respect to all ideologies, but nothing more, a mere thought in the cosmos.</p> <p>-If you notice a typo, inconsistency, or have a suggestion, please don't hesitate to let me know.</p> <p>-Receive my eternal gratitude for taking the time to read this far, once I start, is difficult to stop the waves of words.</p> <p>-Please consider joining Patreon where you can read up to 20 chapters (6 weeks) ahead of release.</p> <p>Enjoy the read!</p> <p>Aequitas and much love,</p> <p>Indigo S.</p>
