Aaina is a curious and introspective 16-year-old girl who has always felt a bit out of place in the world around her. Quiet and thoughtful, she tends to keep to herself, finding understanding in the reflections of the world, whether it's in the glass of her bedroom window or the still surface of a pond. Suddenly when she's at school, she trips and falls on a mirror, not too long after, her reflection comes to life.
At first, Aaina thinks she's imagining things, but when the reflection speaks to her, warning her of a hidden power she's unaware of, she realizes that her life is about to change in ways she never expected. The reflection explains that Aaina has inherited an ancient ability, that is only gifted to a human every one thousand years, making it so she can travel between dimensions through mirrors. Each mirror acts as a portal, leading her to alternate realities, each one more bizarre and dangerous than the last.
As Aaina grapples with this newfound power, she must learn to navigate the complexities of these parallel worlds, all while uncovering the mysteries behind the mirror's magic. But the more she explores, the more she begins to question the true nature of the reflections-and whether she's the one who's been living in a mirror all along. Struggling with her identity and the weight of her destiny, Aaina must choose whether to embrace her powers or abandon them, all while discovering what it means to truly exist in both the real world and the infinite possibilities of the multiverse.

'There's something beyond the mirrors...'
She should probably be choosing her majors for college, considering a career, and the direction for the rest of her life. Instead - she's still working at the small town coffee shop where she got her first job. And while commuting from a bigger city to the much smaller town of Briarsfield where she grew up is a pain, Evie likes the stability. The normalcy. Because the dreams or nightmares that Evie had started having a little over a year ago now are anything but normal.
Dreams of an endless void of fog. They've persisted and refused to leave her alone now for months. And Evie is haunted by the chilling feeling that she is not alone in the fog.
But when the fog suddenly becomes real, weather completely uncommon for Briarsfield at this time of year, Evie wakes up to a sensation of dread. And that something is very different. And very wrong. That something has changed and she's been suddenly put at the epicenter. At the precipice of something life altering.
Or world ending.
