A Gothic tale about the light cast by our mistakes.
In the foggy city of Nevares, the sun is but a memory, and shadows have a will of their own. No one dares venture out at night. Not for fear of monsters... but of shadows that walk alone.
Cairo, a rational young doctor, defies prohibition and follows a shadow without a master. She speaks. She pleads. She promises. She lies.
Cyrene was once a man, convicted of stealing the Mirror of Souls, an ancient artifact capable of freeing—or swallowing—what's left of humanity. Believing he's doing the right thing, Cairo awakens to a forgotten past and opens the doors to a world sealed off by Nevares centuries ago.
As the city crumbles and wandering spirits return to the streets, Cairo must face the ultimate truth: sometimes, what you think you're saving doesn't want to be saved.
And sometimes...
The shadow we run from is the shadow we become.
