Elias Varn was a man who lived for knowledge. From a young age, he read everything he could-psychology, neuroscience, history, physics, chemistry, and more. He was fascinated by the human mind, especially manipulation and deception. Lying was second nature to him, and he enjoyed controlling people by lying and emotional manipulation. But life has his own demands as he was from a middle class family. So under family pressure, he chose physics as his career, his second favorite subject after psychology. His intelligence led him to become an astrophysicist, focused on gravity, dark matter, and the nature of the universe. His goal was to create a Unified Theory that could explain everything. One day, he made a breakthrough-**Ultra-Condensed Graviton Stimulation (UCGS)**, a method to manipulate gravity itself. But his experiment went out of control, creating an artificial black hole. Before he could stop it, he was pulled in, disappearing without a trace. When he woke up, he was no longer in his lab. The air was thick and unfamiliar, the sky was different, and the sounds around him were nothing like Earth. But the biggest shock was his own body-it wasn't his. His hands, his face, even his heartbeat felt strange. And then the pain came-a flood of memories that weren't his, forcing their way into his mind. Elias quickly realized the truth: he was in another world. Somehow, he had been transported to a completely different reality, inside a body that wasn't his own. He didn't know how or why, but one thing was certain-his mind was still the same. He still had his intelligence, his knowledge, and his ability to manipulate. Now, in this unknown world, he would do what he had always done-study, adapt, and take control. But this world had its own rules, its own dangers. And Elias Varn was ready to learn them all.

"Elysium of the Fallen" is a novella in the mecha genre. A post-apocalyptic, scorched world, philosophy, psychology, sadness, melancholy, depression, and >. Well, originally I planned to write some light-hearted novella with the usual "system" and harem, but... I will never allow myself to create something... like that. So, there won’t be any systems, harems, or Mary Sue characters here (well, I’ll at least try). Anyway, I’ll try to release chapters... as often as possible (considering that I’ll be writing two stories at once). If you don’t like something, don’t throw things at me, just write it and I’ll try to improve... well, that’s it... Good luck to everyone, thanks to those who will read, and I’m off to read a biblical apocryphon and drink my eighth espresso. Ciao!
