i want a genre called yield fantasy

the opposite of “weak to powerful” progression: protagonist starts with alot and humbles.

surely examples already exist, maybe a genre already exists, welp

    Isn’t that basically a Greek/Senecan/Shakespearean Tragedy? Sans actual powers.

    Oedipus, MacBeth, Othello. Generally “powerful” people who lose everything due to a traffic character flaw
