PESAWAT berbadan besar yang kutumpangi melaju cepat meninggalkan London. Penerbangan ini nonstop menuju Singapura. Gadis dengan rambut dikucir dan seperangkat touchscreen di tangan, berisi corat-coret daftar pertanyaan, tersenyum gugup di kursi berlapis kulit asli di sebelahku. Aku sedang tidak berselera untuk tersenyum, cukup menyeringai, menatapnya datar. ”Silakan,” kataku. ”Maaf, wawancara ini sudah berkali-kali ditunda. Kami sudah berusaha menyesuaikan jadwal. Tapi begitulah, tidak mudah mengejar kesibukan Anda.” Dia sedikit percaya diri tampaknya. Senyumnya lebih baik. Aku mengangguk. Aku tahu, tidak perlu dijelaskan. Janji pertama bertemu di Jakarta kemarin pagi batal karena aku sudah berangkat menghadiri konferensi. Editor senior majalah minggu- an itu spesial meneleponku, minta maaf, bilang wawancara ini

In a person's world, everything is composed of their time on earth, where the past, present, and future intertwine in a universal order... However, due to an event we still don't know, history takes a 180-degree turn in a sudden change. A young adult historian, 26 years old and obsessed with the great figures of history, is dragged into a reality that defies everything he knows. Since childhood, his fascination with ancient figures for their importance in history and their unyielding bravery in every era has led him to dream of past eras and crucial moments in history. But he never imagined that his destiny would be linked to those legends and mythical stories he so admires. The end of the world arrives in the most unexpected way: the sky tears apart, time fractures, and eras collide. Medieval, futuristic, and Roman soldiers mix in a visual chaos that defies logic. Amid this temporal collapse, the protagonist is thrown into a war-torn France in the year 1430. His knowledge of history and his command of the language make him a privileged witness, but also a suspect. Captured by French soldiers, he must fight for his life while trying to understand the role assigned to him in this new and dangerous world. It is then that he comes face to face with Joan of Arc, a figure as charismatic as she is enigmatic. She distrusts him, but his knowledge of the future and his ability to foresee key events make him a potential ally. Will he be able to alter the course of history without destroying it? Or is his presence in the past part of a much larger plan, a plot woven by forces even he cannot comprehend? In a journey where time is an unpredictable enemy and every decision has unimaginable consequences, the protagonist must choose between being a mere spectator or becoming the hero history never knew it needed. But in a world where the past, present, and future intertwine, who decides what is written in the pages of time? ---

Life is full of surprises. One may have dreams in terms of big achievements in the growth and development journey, however, in the process, things change for the better or worse. What does this scenario tell us. That imaginations or plans in life are one thing and actual results as planned or not planned are another. It is therefore critical to be psychologically prepared for anything even when one is working towards premeditated goals. We have seen or witnessed these things happen, I being one of the victims, to the betterment or detriment of the individuals involved. Plans are either achieved or shattered in the full glare of the affected people. One may have wanted to build a house of some sort, marry a woman or man of certain level of education, color, height, social and economic background, achieve certain level of education and professional background, be a person of repute in a way different from what the rest have experienced and related scenarios but which results are not ultimately implemented or achieved. Hence, what we need to understand in a nutshell is that we should expect surprises in life either negatively or positively. Here, we should be ready to accept such scenarios because nothing is perfect. Given second chance it is possible to correct situations for the better and/or worse depending on the strategy or approach embraced. Regrets in life is very common scene in life since apparently no one has ever made it as planned; people struggle to be at the level planned but practically that come to pass without reaching the expected heights in life. The reason why people keep on working hard or smart to be where they want to be in life. But because life itself is not permanent, people die before realizing their full potential, though practically it has never happened in the life of most people.
