Michael was born into absolute authority on a distant world where resistance never existed and death was inevitable. But Earth alters him in an unforeseen way: here, he does not age, does not fade, does not end. For centuries he influences quietly, untouched by consequence—until a woman forces him into something he has never experienced before: vulnerability. To become real, he must step inside limitation, risk loss, and confront the one thing he has never had—the right to die. A philosophical psychological novel about power, exposure, and the cost of choosing humanity.
