"Empires shall fall and heavens bleed,
I lick my paw and pay no heed.
Ye weep, ye pray, beneath the flame,
Whilst I do purr and watch the game.
A burning world is fair to see,
From high above, where I sit free.
Blame not the ash, nor night's design—
The ink is mine, the World is thine."

Once there were five kingdoms. They warred across millennia — Spade, Heart, Diamond, Clover, and a fifth whose name has been unmade from all memory. A single being annihilated them all — rising from nowhere, bearing a broken, discordant laugh unlike anything the living had known. They called it the Fool. In its madness, it shattered the boundary between real worlds and fictional ones — and since that day, the fairy tales bleed into our reality. Snow White exists. Cinderella exists. But not as you know them. Canada, 2025. Adam Saint-Lazarus. Nineteen. Engineering scholar at Waterloo. A family he cannot afford to disappoint. One morning, he wakes with a black-and-gold card pressed into his palm. That night, he dreams a nightmare he does not entirely return from. Something has changed. Fifty-two bearers receive cards — each bound to an ancient kingdom, a tarot arcane, and a fairy tale twisted into something far less innocent. The Fool returns after millennia of silence. And somewhere in the dark, something laughs — endlessly.

Books on Inner Freedom

Two books. Two liberations. One truth.

Loving Is Never Enough — World Essian Christ

Loving Is Never Enough

Not a book about finding love. A book about learning to build your own worth — even when no one chooses you. Through mythology, psychology and personal experience, it dismantles the great illusions around love: the idea that someone will complete you, that sincere love guarantees a return, that rejection defines your value.

"The true love may not be what we receive. It is the one born when we finally stop abandoning ourselves."
Worrying Is Never Useful — World Essian Christ

Worrying Is Never Useful

A book about letting go. Drawing from ancient myths — Prometheus, Oedipus, Cassandra — and modern psychology, it shows how anxiety keeps us living in what might happen instead of what we can actually build. It does not teach you to stop being afraid. It teaches you to stop being governed by fear.

"Stop living in what could happen. Start living in what you can actually build."
