The Broken Crown.

Luell was born into a world steeped in secrets and shadows, where survival is the highest currency and life\'s value is measured in the weight of sacrifices. Raised by his mother, a woman who sells her body to survive, Luell learns early that no one is untouched by the stigma of their past. The world sees them as expendable—marginalised, devalued, and dismissed by society.

In a society ravaged by war, poverty, and judgment, Luell\'s journey is one of survival. His mother, a figure of strength and resilience, does her best to protect him in a world where nothing is guaranteed, but there is always more lurking beneath the surface. The brothel that serves as their home is both a sanctuary and a prison, and Luell soon realises that survival comes at a price—his innocence, the comfort of the world outside, and the ability to hope for something better.
