Keeper Of The Fallen Ages

For over four thousand years, one man has walked unseen through the rise and fall of empires. From the sun-baked stones of Ancient Egypt to the marble courts of Rome, from the burning libraries of Alexandria to the steel towers of modern cities, he has endured it all. His gift—and his curse—is immortality.

Known by many names across the ages, he has watched civilizations ascend with brilliance only to collapse under the weight of their own hubris. Kingdoms rot. Faiths fracture. Revolutions devour their children. Every cycle repeats.

Now, in the present day, he tells his story to a young PhD student studying the patterns of history. At first, he believes him to be a brilliant eccentric, but as his memories unfold—with details no textbook could hold and wounds only he could remember—the terrifying truth becomes clear: history doesn't just echo, it circles. And the circle is tightening.

Societies that forget the lessons of the past are doomed to repeat them. The Keeper of the Fallen Ages has seen it happen countless times. And he knows—this era is nearing its breaking point.
