Jeremiah was once a vibrant art student at Havenwood University whose world revolved around the vivid palette of his best friend's laughter and encouragement. Together, they painted dreams in every shade imaginable until tragedy struck, leaving Jeremiah adrift in a sea of sorrow.

Now withdrawn and desolate, Miah cloaks himself in the somber embrace of dark, abstract colors-each stroke a silent testament to his grief. But amidst the shadows of his solitude, an unexpected presence emerges: a tall, enigmatic figure who appears like a specter in the rain.

This mysterious stranger challenges Miah to explore the depths of his art and emotions, questioning why he limits himself to the bleak spectrum of his sorrow. As their unlikely friendship blossoms, the tall figure introduces Jeremiah to the theory of colors not just as pigments, but as vessels of emotion-each hue a reflection of life's complexities and possibilities.

Miah must confront the blurred boundaries between reality and illusion, in order for him to find solace in the colors that paints the human soul.
