What if stories were not fiction... but worlds? Not metaphors. Not imagination. Real places that exist alongside humanity. For as long as history remembers, humans believed stories were created. But the truth is far more dangerous. Stories are not written. They are observed. And some of them... refuse to stay inside their pages. Elias Brima is a man with too many unanswered questions and a past he cannot fully explain. When a series of impossible incidents begin to spread-events where "stories" seem to overwrite reality-he is forced into cooperation with an uninvited detective. Silas Quinn. Unpredictable. Brilliant. Infuriating. A man who seems to understand things he should not even be able to notice. Together, they are pulled into an investigation that begins with missing manuscripts... and slowly turns into something far worse. Because someone is editing reality itself. And the ones doing it call themselves: Executioners. But beneath the cases, the murders, and the shifting stories... something else is watching. An author. A man who should not exist inside the system. And a character who refuses to accept the role he was written into. ______________e In a world where stories breathe, bleed, and walk among humans... the question is no longer what is real. The question is: who is allowed to decide? The Plotter is a psychological mystery thriller exploring narrative control, reality manipulation, and the terrifying boundary between creator and creation.
