Author NomadSirius Introduction.

Sirius is the brightest star in the night sky.
Its name is derived from the Greek word "Seirios," meaning glowing or scorching.
Imagining Sirius rising just before sunrise, I embark on the classic and humanities-inspired Nomad journey.
With the aim of introducing the essence of Oriental culture to the West, I am planning to publish a series of 333 eBooks, an English Oriental Humanities Glossary, and an aesthetically pleasing English Fantasy novel.

A series of 333 eBooks.
