ataraxia (at-uh-rak-see-uh) - a state of serene calmness

Ambition is faulty. Often, instead of gaining serendipity, people wish for more.

When faced with the epiphany that life is worth more, Vera drops her entire life disappearing off grid. In her search for serenity, she encounters a race of people with a society based around connections to each-other and the earth rather than constant ambition. After falling asleep during a chilly evening, Vera, faced with a world where she is nothing, will have to decide if this is truly what she wants or will she do everything in her power to go back to the way things were?  What about the one she connected with?
