Tribunal is a literary metaphysical horror novel about a creator put on trial for the crime of having lived without adequate justification.
Toma Rask wakes inside the Tribunal: an infinite civic courthouse where every unfinished work, inherited accusation, private doubt, abandoned self, and internalized judgment has legal standing.
The charge is not murder. Not theft. Not sin.
The charge is existence without adequate justification.
As the case against him unfolds, Toma is forced to defend the life he lived, the art he made, the work he abandoned, the praise he could not receive, and the authorities he never stopped answering. But the deeper he pleads, the more the court feeds on explanation itself.
To escape, he must do the one thing procedure cannot process:
refuse its jurisdiction.
Cold, strange, and severe, TRIBUNAL is a bureaucratic afterlife noir about creation, legitimacy, shame, unfinishedness, and the quiet violence of asking unworthy judges for permission to exist.
