"The fantasy diary of an unconventional girl." -The reading is recommended for a mature audience; the story deals with topics of sexuality, puberty, diversity, sexual preferences, discrimination, personal growth.- Spark is an introverted girl. She doesn't talk much about herself to others, as society would judge her. She's an ordinary girl, besides from a little detail that distinguishes her from the crowd: she is into flowers. After the latest genetic mutations, humans have developed a flower-shaped tail, a new body part considered disgusting and humiliating. But Spark finds these flowers fascinating. The totalitarian and oppressive government of the Hollyhocks leads Spark to escape the island. However, the only place she can go is Aconitum, an island where there are bloodthirsty monsters, known as the Roses. ©Spark Hibis 2024 artwork by: bustedkiing (ig account)
