Vanessa has masked her autism all her life, dodging unplanned lunch invites and living a secret life in the quiet of her room. Danny, lonely and forced into conversion therapy by his homophobic parents, is planning his escape, but he'll never have the guts to break his family for good.

They see one another through visions that have always been there. Two strangers, oddly familiar, bound by something neither understands.

When monsters hunt them both, their hidden powers surface, broken but impossible to ignore, pulling Vanessa to the eerie stillness of Noor and Danny to Glaetter, glacial and unforgiving. One seems the balance to the other, but the barriers between the worlds keep them split and incomplete - vulnerable as the last remnants of the Elp’da, a lineage the Palace of Noor has spent generations erasing.

To even speak the name is a death sentence. To even believe, is persecution. Noor’s stillness isn't peace. It's a lie that only the Elp'da can break. If they find each other before the Palace finds them.
