The Architect

The Architect
Tales of Purgatory – Book One

Life is not a fairy tale. And Demir K. knows it too well.

Drowning in a world of tech startups, soulless meetings, and the weight of his own mind, he drifts through a city that never sleeps—where hope flickers like a dying neon light. But beneath the monotony of everyday life, something else is calling to him. A voice from the depths of history, from ancient ruins and whispered prophecies. The Oracle. Delphi. The Lighthouse. Shadows of an unseen world, pulling him toward answers he isn't sure he wants to find.

As he wrestles with his past and an uncertain future, Demir is forced to confront the one question that has haunted him all along: Is there a way out, or is he destined to keep falling?

A gripping, darkly poetic exploration of burnout, loneliness, and the quiet battles we fight within ourselves—blurring the line between reality and something far more ancient.
