"Meleager: A Fantasy" by Herbert M. Vaughan is a fantasy novel written in the early 20th century. The work tells the story of an unnamed protagonist who, feeling a deep sense of failure and melancholy in his life, is approached by an enigmatic stranger named Signor Arrigo d'Aragno. This stranger reveals a world beyond Earth, where the protagonist is offered the chance to become the king of a distant planet called Meleager. The opening of the narrative introduces the reader to the protagonist's troubled introspection and dissatisfaction with his life. Amidst his existential crisis, he meets d'Aragno, who dramatically propositions him with a promise of a new life filled with purpose and power on the planet Meleager. The protagonist learns that he has been chosen to rule this new world and is subjected to a transformation that includes a mysterious ceremonial arrangement involving his transfer from Earth to Meleager. The stage is set for a tale of adventure and exploration as he embarks on this unprecedented journey into an unfamiliar realm where he is expected to take up a throne and govern a society waiting for their new ruler.
