However, mysteries keep crossing her path the longer she stays. And before she'd be able to find her brother and return to reality, she would need to unveil the Orphic secret. But what if the reality that awaits for her is not the reality that she looked forward to? What if Exiquel Four Bellisima is the secret itself, and within her identity lies the true reality?
