This book is an emotional science fiction story.

  Although it features elves, fae-like beings, and species that may resemble fantasy, everything in this universe is grounded in science, technology, and rational speculation, not magic. Longevity, abilities, and even the idea of “eternal love” are treated as biological, genetic, and technological consequences of a much older and more advanced civilization.

  Stolen from Royal Road, this story should be reported if encountered on Amazon.

  This is not a traditional adventure story.

  It is not about battles, conquest, or invincible heroes.

  It is a story about feelings.

  About fear, care, belonging, loss, choice, and love.

  About what happens when someone fragile finds safety — and what that safety may cost.

  If you are looking for constant action, this may not be the book you expect.

  But if you seek a deeply emotional, introspective narrative, where science fiction exists to explore the most human questions, then this book was written for you.
