As one of the war heroes searches the oldest language in the ancient art of dance, he might discover the Intuitionist's power of finding answers to any questions.

Missing memories might pile up if you encounter the Mesmerizer who stopped World War III with a four-minute speech, especially if he asks you to forget. Even if it's the one and only purpose you have, you will forget it. For he has the voice.

Kusha forgot what she found on the night of the High Auction.

But the laws of the universe are painfully fair sometimes. Purpose always calls you, either through your dreams, or daydreams, even in nightmares ... perhaps, through intuition?

So the Intuitionist, Kusha, runs through the questions the universe throws at her. Each question leads her to her purpose. Her life as an unevolved, Ungraded citizen seems rich compared to those of her friends outside the walls who aren't even citizens. She wants to help her friends, but her questions, her past, her missing memories lead her to myths she never should tangle with. Most importantly, she never should encounter the war heroes who seek the Source among the devil's scriptures and an old form of dance. Not when the dance calls her in dreams after what happened on the night of the auction.

Misba: - I love reading fantasy-the epic ones with middle-age settings, to be specific. In time, I realized I love them for their writing. I'm in love with many, many, many fiction characters---books, movies, anime, games ... But sometimes, I also want an escape from middle age-a time that was bad for women, a time where women needed to validate their actions with hundreds of words rather than just one simple No, a time that burned women in the name of God. I'm not saying women are free now. I'm not saying I could say No to many things even in 21st Century. I'm not saying witch-burning days are over in 2020 and it's not coming through different forms. No, I won't say them, for they should be talked about now more than ever. I only want to say that I wanted a world-a futuristic South Asia-which would be very different from our current one (in views and social practices) but still similar to the best things my culture provides (dance, music, art ... don't forget food and philosophy). I made one such world that begins after an Apocalypse. If you are interested in that world, I'm blessed to have your attention. ***P.S. I illustrate my book covers.
