On the planet Aya, death has been conquered. Thanks to the "Regeneration" project, millions return to life-young, healthy, their memories perfectly intact. They are granted a second chance. But what is the price for this miracle? Steve is one of the fortunate few who escaped death. Today he is a brilliant teacher, but his work is not a lecture; it is a duel. He is tasked with "taming" two of the most independent students of the new world: a former criminal kingpin, Eshkol, who knows neither fear nor pity, and the femme fatale, Marissa, who hides an icy heart behind a mask of seduction. Steve must crack their armor and melt the ice. But they aren't the only ones in need of a lesson. Who was the confident, handsome teacher two hundred years ago? What secret does his friendship with the powerful Governor Leo hide? And why does the Viceroy of Aya, the ruler of the entire planet, entrust him with a mission that may require not only special physical training, but also the renunciation of love? The answers lie in the past, where a single decision, made long ago, sealed his fate against the backdrop of the world's own destiny. his fate against the backdrop of the fate of the entire world.
