The Jekyll Chronicles: 1 - Genesis of Jekyll
Before the shadow of Mr. Hyde ever fell across the streets of London, there was a man of ambition and vision - Dr. Henry Jekyll. A young and idealistic physician, Jekyll is drawn to the fringes of science in search of answers to humanity's most profound questions: What defines good and evil? Can the essence of a person be divided, tamed, or perfected?
As he immerses himself in forbidden experiments, Jekyll uncovers ancient alchemical texts and secretive formulas that hint at unlocking the human soul. His work attracts the attention of the mysterious Circle, an elite cabal of scientists and visionaries who see Jekyll's potential - but also his naivety. Encouraged and manipulated by their influence, Jekyll delves deeper into uncharted scientific realms, creating a serum that could separate human duality itself.
But ambition has its price. As his experiments yield unpredictable and horrifying results, Jekyll struggles to reconcile his scientific triumphs with the moral implications of his work. Whispers of betrayal, corruption, and shadowy figures with dark motives push him further into isolation. When the serum begins to take effect, Jekyll confronts a terrifying truth: the darker nature he sought to suppress is not just a part of him-it may be his true self.
Genesis of Jekyll sets the stage for the epic conflict of light and dark that defines The Jekyll Chronicles. This gripping prequel explores the origins of Dr. Jekyll's experiments, the forces that corrupted his vision, and the seeds of the chaos that would soon envelop London.
Rich in gothic atmosphere and psychological depth, it is the beginning of a tale of ambition, morality, and the devastating cost of playing a god.Also from
