Description
In a world where dreams and reality intertwine, Bloat emerges as the unlikely boy governor of the Rox, determined to reshape Ellis into a thriving metropolis. Encumbered by his enormous size, Bloat's aspirations are anything but small; he envisions a city that thrives on the vibrant pulse of its unique inhabitants. Yet, as he navigates the treacherous waters of politics, he discovers that ambition often comes with unforeseen challenges and obstacles.
Alongside a diverse cast of characters, Bloat’s journey reveals the complexities of power, identity, and the quest for acceptance. Each decision he makes not only impacts his own fate but also the lives of those around him, leading to a narrative rich in intrigue and deception. Set against a backdrop of fantastical elements and societal struggles, Bloat seeks not just to govern but to prove that even the most misunderstood figures can spark change in a divided world.
