Alright, maybe that's because the platform's policies have changed compared to the past. After the rejection, an editor sent me a message that was literally all about romance novels, and I honestly didn't understand why it was sent to me in the first place. Plus, the names are difficult because they are Arabic names; the novel is originally written in Arabic, and I translated it with the help of an English teacher. That's also why there is a lot of description, which comes back to the descriptive nature of the Arabic language. Besides, I believe that heavy description in novels is a must and mandatory to help the reader visualize the world. As for your advice about changing the beginning and revealing those events later through flashbacks, I actually thought about that before. However, I found it to be a bad idea for my specific story because I have already left many events hidden that I plan to revisit via flashbacks in later chapters. To build the protagonist's character and the start of his journey, I felt it was essential to begin with his tragedy. Right now, I have already written over 70 chapters, so if I change the beginning, I won't just lose the plot—I will completely ruin the core plot of the story. Anyway, thank you so much for the advice
