Home wasn't home anymore. Not for Pay'nu. Not since everything happened.
Pay'nu once had everything: a loving family, caring parents, a lovely sibling, and loyal friends. Yet, something was missing. Why?
She had fallen for someone who never saw her the same way. Among the many who admired him, she was just another admirer. That someone was Neteyam Sully.
Neteyam, the village's golden boy, the eldest child of Toruk Makto, and the kindest soul in Pandora. Their families were friends, but that did nothing to lessen the distance between them. Yet, she found solace in watching him, even from afar. But then, the sky people returned, and everything changed.
The Sully family fled, and in their haste, he didn't even look at her, let alone speak to her. Her world shattered.
Years later, as she started to pull herself together, he came back, but not as the boy she knew.
Neteyam Sully had come back from his death, altered in ways she couldn't comprehend. His eyes, once filled with life, now seemed haunted. The boy she loved was gone. In his place stood a stranger, hardened and harsh. His kindness had been replaced with a coldness that chilled her to the bone.
As the sky people threatened their world once more, Pay'nu faced a battle not only for Pandora but also for the soul of the one she had always loved.
