This story is set in a world of “imaginary history,” suggesting a blend of historical elements with fantastical or speculative fiction.
The events in this novel defy the conventional flow of time, creating a setting where:
The future is in the past and all elements or events that one would expect to occur in the future are found in the past. This could mean advanced technologies, futuristic societies, or events typically associated with the future are part of the historical setting.
This novel touches the very essence of money and power, in an era of scarcity and widespread poverty, in a time where society is plagued by evil afflictions that ravage its people, destroy its entity, and crumble its structure, hope for social revival weakens over time.
Wealth remains the monopoly of the strong and the dreams of the weak. Power remains the ultimate goal of greedy souls for control and the satisfaction of the lust for domination.
Although good people still exist, they are powerless in this era, lacking financial, political, civil, or temporal powers. However, they are still capable of dreaming beautiful dreams through which they try to remove injustice from the oppressed, bring joy to the unhappy, and satisfy the poor.
The past in the future conversely, the future is characterized by elements or events from the past. This could involve ancient traditions, historical figures, or events occurring in what is traditionally considered the future.
And the present is stuck between the dimensions: The present time is described as being caught between these two reversed dimensions. This creates a complex and dynamic setting where characters might experience time in a non-linear fashion, facing challenges and mysteries that span across different temporal realities.
