Chapter 1 - INTRODUCTION

This is not a tale about a city alone, nor about a king who fell or rose again, but about a hidden balance one that tilts every time people believe it has finally settled.

In a world where Saba stands beside what cannot be seen,

where humans walk upon a land that remembers every step,

and where the jinn are bound by covenants

not written in ink,

but in blood and silence,

betrayal was born the way ideas are born:

quiet,

intelligent,

and convincing.

This is not the story of an invincible hero,

nor of a prophecy waiting for its chosen one.

It is the story of a man

who was forced onto a path he did not choose,

who lost far more than he ever gained,

until he understood that survival

does not mean walking away unscathed…

but walking away honest.

Within these pages,

you will pass through cities sealed not by fear but by mercy,

through caverns that did not devour those who entered them,

but transformed them.

You will witness how a single, small seal

can halt a massacre,

and how illusion alone

can build an entire kingdom.

Here,

the enemy is not always the one who raises a sword,

the ally is not always the one who stands beside you,

and truth never reveals itself fully

until its price becomes unbearable.

Read slowly.

Some paths,

if entered in haste…

will never let you return as you were.
