In a world shaped by ancient magic, Ara was born with a connection unlike any other. Set in 5000 BCE, she and her twin sister, Nira, live in a small, tight-knit tribe. While Nira is adored, basking in the tribe's love and attention, Ara stands in her shadow-quiet, reserved, and attuned to a force far older than anyone can comprehend. What begins as a faint whisper from the earth soon grows into an unstoppable power within Ara, a magic both sacred and dangerous. As her bond with the earth deepens, Ara finds herself isolated, her connection to her sister fraying and her relationship with Kahi, her closest friend, crumbling under the weight of secrets. Love, jealousy, and fear collide as Ara wrestles with a power she never asked for but cannot deny. Chosen by the ancient forces of the earth, Ara is bound to a destiny that will stretch beyond her first life. Her tragic fate will set in motion a journey that transcends time, as she is reborn again and again, destined to live out her soul's path through different eras and worlds. Can Ara learn to control the magic within her before it consumes her entirely, or will her power lead her down a path of destruction? What happens when, centuries later, she is reborn into the future, bound once again by time-and by the magic that refuses to let her go?
