Every society decides what parts of the body matter.When a dentist wakes in a foreign world obsessed with mouths, he assumes he has found work. The people speak through their teeth, measure one another by enamel, and summon him without warning to examine signs of rot.At first, the work feels familiar. Diagnose the decay. Identify the failing structure. Restore order where possible.But the deeper he travels through this strange land of inspections and extractions, the less it resembles a civilization and the more it resembles a body.Corridors pulse like veins. Settlements behave like organs. And beneath it all, something vast struggles to function.Decay is everywhere.Not just in the teeth.By the time he understands what is truly rotting beneath the surface, the role he has been preparing for is no longer that of a healer.
