A destitute healer awakens in a grim fantasy realm—not as the chosen one, but as a forgotten face in someone else's story. Blessed with forbidden knowledge and cursed with a mythical relic, he discovers the novel governing his world is a corrupted shadow of what it should be. The artifact binds him to an inescapable fate, one that grows stronger with each passing moment, feeding on his very survival. Surrounded by ruthless supporting cast members willing to murder for scraps of power, he must carve a path through treachery, carnage, and shattered destinies. Failure means more than death—it means becoming the tragedy that consumes this broken world entirely.
