Zlata-Volkova
Annika has lived seven lives before this one-each of them debilitating, learning sword magic, learning languages, and opening businesses. But in her eighth life, she chooses something different: to be remembered. She wants her name to be on everyone's lips even after death.
Armed with knowledge from the land and from numerous rebirths, Annika sets out to shape civilization. She enlists inventors to recreate the technologies she once knew, opens thriving businesses, and turns profits into sustainability. Her city becomes a beacon of innovation, beauty, and ambition, as well as a mirror to her own quest for immortality.
As the city grows, so does the question: is Annika building the future, or simply a monument to herself?
