A Dominion of the Cursed

Logline: He has survived twenty-seven years by knowing exactly who he is. Now he is someone else. He woke up in a world not his own, wearing the face and the black hair of a boy named Caelus. In this theocracy, black hair is not a trait. It is a mark of an unblessed soul, a sin against the god Veyrn, punishable by divine execution. The rational choice was clear. He is not Caelus. He owes this world nothing. He swore to be Caelus anyway. Now the most cynical man alive must convince a god, a clergy, and an entire religious hierarchy that he is a boy he has never met, living a life he knows nothing about, under laws that do not hesitate. He knows that he is not Caelus, and he will never be. But he gave his word.
