Welcome, reader, to a world where dreams are not mere figments of the subconscious but realms as real and merciless as waking life itself.
In this universe, fate is not an abstract notion,
but a force woven by unseen hands. Every individual is born with a thread of destiny, guided, twisted, and occasionally severed by powers far beyond mortal comprehension. The gods of this world, known to some as the Reverents, are not merciful deities of old tales. They are impartial, sometimes cruel, and always watching.
Regression Syndrome follows the journey of a single soul navigating a reality where death is not always the end, and life is a cycle of trials within dreams and waking worlds alike.
It is a story of human defiance, of struggling against an existence designed to crush hope beneath the weight of inevitability.
At the heart of this world lies a mysterious phenomenon known as the Dream, an otherworldly plane where memories, regrets, and alternate futures manifest.
It is in these Dreams where individuals face versions of themselves, forgotten history, and ancient beings whose true motives remain obscured.
Yet even within these relentless cycles, there exists a faint, stubborn glimmer of rebellion those who refuse to bow to fate, who carve their own Names into the fabric of existence itself.
This story is not a traditional tale of heroes and villains.
It is one of survival, obsession, loss, and fleeting hope in a world where the line between reality and illusion is ever-blurred. The protagonist is neither flawless nor infallible.
His choices are born from desperation, hatred, and the rare, fragile moments of warmth that make life worth enduring.
If you, reader, seek a world of gods and monsters, of quiet tragedies and relentless struggle, then perhaps this story may leave an echo within you as well.
Welcome to Regression Syndrome.
