The Fall of Chance

Life is a Lottery

The town stood alone. It had no name, it had no history. It was built upon a single idea: the abolition of free will. Believing that the world’s evils are born from selfish desires, the people had surrendered their whole lives to chance. Every choice, every decision, was determined by the roll of the dice.

Now is the time of the Fall of Chance, the coming-of-age rite that will map out the lives of the next generation. Their career; their home; their spouse: the Fall of Chance will decide it all.

Among these youngsters is Unt. He harbours a secret that could help fulfil his dreams – or throw him into ruin. For human nature is not easily supressed. Ambition, jealousy, love and hate endure, and their devastating consequences will thrust Unt into an odyssey of self-discovery. Personal desire and society’s demands will clash and Unt will learn that what we want, what we deserve and what we expect can be very different to what we get.
