In the moment of death, consciousness crosses into another realm, a vast domain where memory fades and identity must be rebuilt. Most who arrive there begin anew, their former lives slipping beyond reach. Yet one soul awakens with fragments that refuse to vanish. Faces linger. Echoes of purpose stir. A sense of something lost—and something taken—follows her through the shifting expanse of the afterlife. As she searches for the source of these remnants, she is drawn toward a truth older than any world she has known, and a journey that will lead her back toward the living, where forces she cannot yet name are waiting.
