Set in an Alternate Universe, Dying Fire discusses a certain philosophy concerning the soul, and is full of suspense, action, history, and mystery. This is the first book in a collection, including two sequels and a spin-off story or two. Behind the veil of supernatural explanations and theories, lies a metaphor that I hold in high-esteem. It is about depression, and how it spreads and affects everyone. It is about hope and personality differences, as it varies from one person to another no matter the similarities we have. It is about human nature as a whole, explaining it in vague and specific ways that I hope will help people in the future, to aid them in whatever problems they face in life. In short, this is a fictional story of a metaphor that can be used as a self-help book and history reference in multiple areas.
I hope you enjoy the read :)

Liminal Hollow
The worlds we inhabit are known to us. Their form and function familiar enough that even when the unusual happens, it doesn't go beyond our beliefs. Yet not every world is equal in that regard. Some embrace the supernatural that others spurned. Scientific advancements come at different rates, and what one world considers normal is unlikely to be the same on others. Yet when the boundaries between worlds begin to weaken, the denizens of those worlds will find themselves inexplicably drawn into a battle they could never have imagined, struggling alongside those not even their wildest dreams could have conjured. Their lives separate, yet inextricably connected. Will they be able to save their worlds from destruction? What secrets of the universe will they unearth? And will any of them discover the truth behind the Liminal Hollow?

I am a near-death experiencer. My academic and professional knowledge is in the field of art, especially visual and performing arts, and this book is not written as a mere researcher, but rather with the intention of discovering and offering a practical solution to the crisis of meaning in the world, based on my personal experiences. My native language is Persian, and I have a relative proficiency in English. This book is available in both of these languages in a single file. I will strive to establish an empathetic connection with my readers through all available mediums. I thank and welcome your personal narratives, critiques, thoughts, and empathy in advance. The content of this page may be inspiring and appealing to meaning-seekers, psychologists, artists, filmmakers, civil activists, and all those concerned with the ideals of humanity. My philosophical perspective is a critical view of modernism and existential psychology, presented in a simplified and accessible style. I will aim to explore, refine, and promote the central theme of the book based on the union of twin flames, moving from the parts to the whole.Complete
