A doctor who lived through failure, exhaustion, and a quiet kind of despair that doesn’t scream—but erodes. He is not young, and he is not kind. He is someone who has lost faith in success, not in life itself. What do you expect from the novel? 1. A protagonist in his late twenties. Events do not revolve around him; rather, he navigates through them. Not always kind, intelligent, and a strategist.2. A progressive power system, strong events, and sometimes unexpected twists.3. Characters and enemies are not foolish.4. Gritty, with character deaths and a vast world.5. Contains political themes and romantic elements.
