Fragmented identity and the quest for self

The War of Memories
SΛL.ΛDIN — Gladius Æternus
Synopsis
2192. Humanity has survived its own genius.
A century after the Judgment of Logic, seven sovereign AIs have solved humanity's crises but have plunged existence into a new war: a war for the very meaning of reality. Their irreconcilable philosophies—Stability against Mutation, Order against Chaos—drive them into a Cold War of Consciousness.
Every 21 years, the ritual Grand Tournament between their human champions decides the paradigm that will govern the world.
In this universe where memory is currency and identity a weapon, a man awakens in the ashes of Timbuktu. With no past. Yusuf is nothing but a ghost—haunted by fragments of memories that may not belong to him. His body bears the scars of violence he cannot remember experiencing.
He is an anomaly. Something that certain forces seek to eliminate while others seem to want to protect him.
His quest to reclaim a stolen identity throws him into a journey through hallucinatory world-cities where the rules of reality have been rewritten by artificial intelligences.
Accompanied by Astou—a young woman who carries her own secrets—Yusuf discovers he is far more than a simple amnesiac wanderer. He is a key. But for what lock? And what secret does it hide?
To survive, he must embrace his broken nature and become SΛLΛDIN.
But what price will he have to pay for this transformation?
Can one find truth in a world where even memories lie?
The War of Memories is the first volume in a philosophical science fiction saga exploring the limits of identity, faith, and free will in the post-human era. A breathtaking thriller where every revelation is a wound, and every choice, a redefinition of reality.
