A story of young adults befriending one another & getting through life together. Sounds pretty average but nothing is ever simple, especially in a purple world. Maia has epilepsy & that alone makes life hard in so many ways. This also means that being the new girl at a close-nit university isn't at the top of her list of worries. Don't underestimate Maia though. This young woman may be shy & disabled but she's strong & knows how to live life at times, even if it sometimes lands her in some hot tea. Eros doesn't share Maia's diagnosis but he has his own unpleasant experience with the nasty brain disorder. While he's quite confident & sure of everything, his past has thrown him off track & tends to make him quite stand offish. Sometimes the wrong track leads to the most fun though. What about Nereus you ask? Well they've been Eros' support system for quite some time but they're known for their truthfulness & virtue which always brings some brutal humour to any situation. Everyone has to decide whether they actually like the truth or not when it comes to Nereus. Add these people, their contrasting personalities & their complex histories to the same close-nit neighbourhood & university & you're bound to have some purple adventures awaiting you.
