King Matthew Glandol discovers a series of letters at his front door, threatening to reveal the royal family's secrets. Everything Dolorem's citizens thought they knew about one another is crumbling, their reality splitting at the seams. As their lives unravel, the responsibility falls to the next generation to become more than their parents past and set the story straight, picking up the pieces of the shattered town.
