"Ck. Aku masih berbaik hati membiarkan ibumu hidup di penjara." Arya mengacak rambutnya sembarangan. “Toh percuma aku mengurusinya lagi. Mendengar itu, entah kenapa Tiara merasa lega. Paling tidak, ibunya ternyata masih hidup. "Terima kasih," ucap Tiara terbata-bata. "Tapi sebagai gantinya, kamu harus menikah denganku." Sepasang mata Tiara terbelalak. “Menikah? Itu ndak mungkin--" "Kau harus membayar nyawa Bapak dengan mengabdi di rumah ini untuk seumur hidup, sebagai istriku." Arya kembali berucap dengan tegas. Tatapannya menghunjam tajam tepat di manik mata Tiara. “Selamanya, kamu ataupun ibumu yang berhati busuk itu tidak akan lepas dari cengkeramanku.” Arya tersenyum sinis sembari menatap Tiara dengan penuh kebencian. “Jangan berani-beraninya kamu melarikan diri.”

I get sent away to the countryside because my parents fear that I'll use my privileged background to lord over others. In turn, they're taking in Tina from that family to the city for her upbringing and schooling. In the countryside, I get up at 4:00 am daily to feed the pigs, then it's a grueling three-hour trek through the mountains to school. I'm also barely surviving due to constant malnutrition. I reach out to my parents for a mere 300 dollars for tuition, only for them to accuse me of spending recklessly. In the meantime, they're donating an entire building just to secure a spot for Tina at her preferred school. I finally make it into Tina's high school and earn a guaranteed university admission spot, only for my parents to order me to hand it over to her as they unleash their fury on me, yelling, "You're clearly bad to the bone, always trying to take things that belong to Tina." "Tina almost gave up on life because of what you did. You're indebted to her for the rest of your life." They, using their parental rights, forfeit my guaranteed university admission spot to fulfill Tina's wish. They then transfer all company shares and real estate to her for her future security, while the whole family makes arrangements to move abroad together. I take in everything before me, no longer feeling hurt. I calmly pack my belongings and walk away from the place where I don't belong.

Année 2279. La planète s’apprête à traverser une crise sociale et environnementale sans précédent. Les inégalités de classes entre les Éternels et les Éphémères atteignent leur paroxysme. L’ère de l’immortalité touche à sa fin, embarquant les populations dans un tourbillon d’interrogations, et les dirigeants dans des stratagèmes où l’éthique n’a pas sa place.

D’un côté Harold, usé par ses relations familiales et des capacités qui le dépassent, de l’autre Jeanne, frustrée par son extraordinaire absence de facultés. Au coeur de la forêt primaire, aux côtés de la dernière tribu libre du monde, tous deux s’appuieront sur la Nature et le Vivant pour trouver des réponses à leur quête de sens. Un roman d’aventure qui rend hommage à tous les opprimés, ces Silencieux qui n’en pensent pas moins. Cette histoire se déroule chronologiquement après « Les Éphémères sont éternels ». Pour autant, les deux livres peuvent se lire indépendamment et dans l’ordre qui vous plaira.
