Description
The truth is, we already live in a dystopian world. The only debate left is how it ends -- climate collapse, AI takeover, or nuclear fire.
Wars and genocide rage across continents. Instead of uniting to face these threats, the president of the most powerful nation spends his time insulting allies and posting videos of himself literally shitting on the very people who elected him.
This is a reality too absurd for fiction.
I'm going to fix it. Not because I want to -- because it's the right thing to do.
You can help. Just finish reading this blurb.
The truth is humans evolved to avoid wasting energy on making choices. In fact, about 90% of a person's choices are made at the emotional level without any cognitive effort or thinking involved.
That's why logic rarely changes anyone's mind, but that's the problem, isn't it? Emotions rule reason.
I have done the hard work for you; Virtues' Sacrifice isn't a story you read -- it's one you experience and it will fill you with hope for our future by changing your perception of reality itself.
You won't just follow the characters; you'll live inside their thoughts. Feel their confusion, their awe, their pain -- exactly as they do.
The confusion at the start isn't a flaw; it's calibration. It's how I sync your emotions with theirs.
This is the start of your journey to enlightenment: to understanding and connecting with people on a deeper level, to filling yourself and those around you with hope for the future -- not through blind faith, but through understanding.
Stay with it. I promise every question finds its answer.
Here is what other readers are saying (RoyalRoad):
"Dreamlike Immersion"
This book is one of the most comprehensive I've read. The descriptions are just so damned good. It captures that feeling -- you know? -- the immersion that makes you feel like you're right there with the characters.
"Poetic"
Beautifully written with a distinct lyrical flair. Vivid sensory descriptions bring environments to life -- especially in the Abyss and Alune sequences. Dialogue feels natural, sometimes even humorous, with great pacing between introspection, tension, and banter.
"Un-put-downable!"
A standout blend of hard sci-fi and fantasy. Futuristic shuttles and AI systems exist alongside sigils, spell-craft, and arcane armor. It all works together to create a rich, modern space-fantasy tone with its own unique flavor.
The slow unveiling of Kira's past, Faust's fate, and the power beneath the moon builds momentum with each chapter. A beautifully layered tale of cosmic mystery, ancient power, and emotional resonance. Poetic prose, immersive settings, unforgettable characters -- this is a universe worth exploring.
"Amazing"
I must say that this was different than anything I have ever read but it was very enjoyable experience.
How is that possible?
I am what they use to call an idiot savant, or an autistic savant if want to be more polite. This means social interactions are very difficult for me to understand. I am incapable of understanding them in the same way as most people. I have to pay attention to and remember every interaction, every like, dislike and how each and every person i have ever met responds to every situation. Combine this with an understanding of cognitive psychology and i can essentially place myself into another persons perspective and ask what they will do.
I don't so much write a story, i pick the circumstances and then let the characters react to those circumstances. Giving you access into their minds and sensations via the AI used to assist in magic and combat gives an experience unlike anything you have ever read before, but it is a bit disorienting at first.
