A history student is tasked with sorting through an abandoned asylum's archives. The asylum is rumored to be haunted, but Lena dismisses this as merely town folklore. When her research brings her to venture inside the asylum's walls, however, the fragments of stories she has been learning about now come to life. Surrounded by the ghosts of the asylum's 200-year history, she comes to learn of its cruel hidden truths - and it now falls on her to give voice to the abuse, maltreatment, and indignities suffered by those whose voices would have otherwise been lost to time. This story will span the history of America's mental health system, as shown through the different eras of the asylum. Against the backdrop of this dark and isolated prison, Lena forges new friendships across time, and sets the souls of these ghosts free by bringing their stories to light. *Dedicated to the many lives that were lived out in mistreatment behind the silence of asylum walls.*

Once upon a time, there was a boy with pink-dusted cheeks that waited for Skylar outside class every morning to walk her to her next one. Breathless laughter echoed in her room after he would climb in through her window every evening, eyes crinkled into crescent moons and cheeks bunched up with the force of his smile. Together, they would listen to music under the river of stars in the sky every night. Now Skylar is miserably grown up, the windows in her room stay firmly shut at all times, and the boy she wanted to share her music and her life with is now a planet outside her orbit.
