The Fates

di IOAKIM IOAKIM (Autore)

Ioakim Ioakim, 2026

Before the gods drew breath, before the first mortal opened his eyes to morning, three sisters sat at a loom that existed at the edge of everything and made the work of all existence. Clotho spins the thread of life from the raw fiber of potential. Lachesis measures each thread with her rod, reading the length that is already decided. Atropos holds the shears, and waits. THE FATES enters the hall where Clotho, Lachesis, and Atropos have always worked — a place that is not quite inside the world and not quite outside it — and stays there long enough to understand what it costs to be the ones who do not decide but only know. From the spinning of heroes and monsters to the thread of Orpheus's wife, from the impossible fiber that resists all categories to the one occasion when Lachesis speaks face-to-face with a living man who is not afraid of her, this is the story of the three sisters who are not cruel, not indifferent, not the villains of fate's long drama — but something rarer and stranger: the ones who see everything, feel more than they are supposed to, and go on with the work. A literary mythology novel told from inside the timeless hall of the Moirai — intimate, precise, and quietly devastating. Three sisters. One loom. Every life that has ever been or will be. Clotho spins. Lachesis measures. Atropos cuts. The Fates have always done this work — before the gods existed, before the first mortal drew breath, before time had anything to count. But the work has a cost, and the cost is knowing. From the thread of Oedipus to the music of Orpheus, from the god who comes to bargain to the philosopher who arrives without fear, THE FATES enters the hall where all lives are made and follows the three sisters through the work that never ends — finding in them not the cold machinery of destiny, but three beings who feel more than they were supposed to, and love what they cannot save.
