Within the maze: A novel Vol. I explores how loyalty, emotional imbalance, and inherited duty shape individual identity within a rigid domestic structure. It examines the quiet struggle of those caught between affection and indifference, as unequal bonds within a household affect decisions, perception, and self-worth. The pressure of familial legacy and societal standing exerts a heavy influence on characters whose ambitions are often overshadowed by emotional obligations or neglect. Questions of justice, favoritism, and unmet expectations frame the narrative, deepening the sense of personal constraint and internal unrest. Tension builds as romantic interests and long-standing grievances intersect, revealing how personal desires must be negotiated amid social roles and inherited burdens. It reflects on the psychological toll of being overlooked or idealized, showing how past allegiances and unresolved family dynamics complicate choices. The novel ultimately confronts the consequences of repression, unmet longing, and the persistence of unspoken rivalries under the weight of tradition and expectation.
