The Steel Flowers Forest

In the beginning there was gold, after gold came silver, and then copper, and in conclusion iron. This is the story of Tijaw's creation of the world, after which he created Heaven and its spiritual inhabitants led by his two sons, the Twin Gods, Yera and Arey. This is the beginning of this story. Marked by boundaries and deep-rooted differences, on the dividing line that separates two distant Kingdoms for customs, beliefs, principles and morality. An utopian one, that of the South, guided by support and sharing values. And a dystopian one, in a corrupt and selfish North. Two Kingdoms divided by an immense forest of metal: the Forest of the Steel Flowers, surrounded by very high walls and accessible by only eight portals, guarded by the Regents. But the forest is rusting and a war is coming. The four Regents of the South, during their journey for the battle will discover a truth that goes beyond the Kingdoms, their ideals, these pages. Anthony C. has masterfully staged the metaphor of the current socio-political situation, whose central themes (climate, economy, war, social relations) touch on those buttons that should allow mankind to trigger the spark for a new awareness.
