The Regressor’s Gambit

Thomas Morrison has spent his life playing it safe—avoiding risks, holding onto regret, and watching his dreams slip away. Now, lying on his deathbed in a dingy apartment, he is consumed by thoughts of what could have been. With his final breath, he wishes for one thing: a second chance.

When Thomas wakes up in his 20-year-old body in the year 1995, he’s certain it’s a dream. But as he relives familiar moments and sees the face of his long-deceased mother, he realizes this is no illusion. Armed with the knowledge of the future, Thomas seizes the opportunity to rewrite his life.

As he navigates the booming tech industry, uses his foresight to build an empire, and reconnects with people from his past, Thomas quickly discovers that changing the future isn’t as simple as he imagined. Small choices ripple into unforeseen consequences, and major historical events begin to deviate from his memories.

His new life takes an unexpected turn when he encounters another time traveler—someone from his original timeline who has their own plans for the future. With a shadowy organization monitoring temporal anomalies and threatening his freedom, Thomas must grapple with the ethical implications of his actions. How far is he willing to go to protect his second chance?

Amidst the chaos, Thomas faces personal struggles: the love he never pursued, friendships he couldn’t save, and the burden of knowing the future. As his choices accumulate, he must decide what truly matters—wealth, power, or the people he left behind
