When, Emerie, a young teenaged girl comes home to the unraveling of her mother, she is forced to relive one of the darkest moments in her past.
Taking place in the city of Padanta, everyone knows to hold onto their Mirrors which they use to monitor their emotionauras, what they believe is a physical representation of the true soul, the state of someone's internal being. After all, everyone had heard of the haunting experiences that those who neglected their Mirrors experienced. Dangerous when unkempt, Padanta's citizens are dedicated to self-reflection as a lifestyle.
Ms. Dey, Emerie's mother, has not used her Mirror in two years and has not turned back. Perhaps this explains why Emerie recognizes her mother less and less, and the recent frightening activities within her home. As her mother's monsters become her own, Emerie is faced with the choice to run or risk hurting the one she loves most.
