You won’t remember how it starts. Maybe it was a boy in a room. Maybe it was a letter on a table. Maybe it was you. You’ll think you know what’s happening. You’ll follow the clues. Try to piece together the names, the faces, the places that seem just a little off, the chapters that aren't linear. You’ll swear something important just happened a few pages ago—until it’s gone. But don’t worry. You’re not supposed to understand. You’re not supposed to hold on. You’re just supposed to read. And when the story ends—if it ends— you will forget it. That’s the only way it works. But please, don't forget me.

The Fallacy Game – Full Synopsis > “Truth is subjective. Reality can be reasoned away. And in this game—your mind is the battlefield.” In a world where logic is weaponized and debate is a matter of survival, an underground tournament known only as The Fallacy Game emerges — a cerebral war where losing means the destruction of your reputation, your identity, and sometimes, your very sense of self. Rael Veir is a reclusive prodigy with a haunted past and a brain wired for paradoxes. When his sister is institutionalized after a televised debate collapse, Rael receives an invitation to the game — not as a witness, but as a player. Each round pits him against another genius in a lethal battle of logic. The prize for victory: progression to the next tier. The cost: a fragment of his memory, emotion, or moral compass… gone forever. As Rael ascends the ranks, he begins to question everything — the rules, the judges known as Observers, and the reality he's anchored to. Twisted rivals with fractured ideologies emerge. Forgotten players return. And all signs point toward a final debate known only as the Final Paradox — a round so mind-breaking, it's said no player has reached it and come back sane. But Rael is not like the others. He doesn't want to win the game. He wants to tear it apart from the inside. To do that, he must outwit the Mirror — a faceless, undefeated player who seems to know Rael’s every move… and may, impossibly, be Rael himself. > “If no one remembers the truth, did it ever exist?”

“Kid, instead of staying out here in this dump—why not come with me? You can play all the tennis you want. Live in a better place without having to worry about not having enough food on the table or clothes on your back” I looked up at him, eyes narrowing. Disbelief. Suspicion. This wasn’t normal. Nothing about this was normal. A stranger in rich clothes shows up out of nowhere, offers me a golden ticket out of this dump, and expects me to just say yes? Yeah, right. Every instinct I had was screaming. My gut twisted with a familiar tension—one I knew better than to ignore. So I did the only thing I know how to do when the world gets too close. I ran.
