Blurred Vision

Special #1

Special #1

May 10, 2023

Hello! Firstly, I wanted to thank all of You who subscribed to my novel! 

As the special episode, I wanted to share information about the meanings behind the characters' names and explain why I chose them. I always pay much attention to the meanings to make the names "special" and closely related to the character's history, character, and features... Below You can find the explanation of Kaeso and Adam's names; the two main characters introduced to You so far.

Kaeso

Kaeso or Caeso [ˈkae̯soː] is a personal name in Latin, specifically a praenomen, which is often abbreviated as K. While not a widespread name, Caeso was a popular choice for various notable families, including those from the patrician and plebeian classes, during the time of the Roman Republic.

Several proposed etymologies exist, with the most popular being the derivation from the Latin verb caedere, meaning "to cut." It is suggested that the name was given to a child born through the Caesarean section, an operation where the child is cut out of the mother's womb. However, this explanation is likely a false etymology, as it doesn't seem to apply to the name Caeso or the cognomen Caesar, which share the same root.

However, the most plausible explanation for the name Kaeso is the derivation from the word caesius, meaning "blue-grey." This word was commonly used to describe the color of the eyes. And this meaning is the main reason why I gave it to Kaeso. On the novel's cover, you can see what his eyes look like - they are very blue-grey, looking very blurry as if he is blind.


Adam

The origin of the name Adam (Hebrew: אָדָם) can be traced back to the Hebrew Bible, where Adam was the first human. The name itself is derived from the Hebrew noun adamah (אדמה), which means "soil" or "earth." When used as a noun, “אָדָם” translates to "man" or "humanity".

I chose this name because, for Kaeso, Adam was “the first human,” the first whose face became visible to him.


I hope You enjoyed reading this special. See You soon (づ๑•ᴗ•๑)づ♡

Kaeso cannot see people's faces... This makes it almost impossible to understand the emotions of people around him and their intentions... He is trying to get used to it, but it is more complicated than it may seem.
Will he find the cause of his unusual condition?

Lost in the world of new technologies and robots, a street artist tries to survive another day. Kaeso hates the modern world, which takes away what he values most. However, there is no way to escape it.
