Description:
In a world where clouds form the ground and lakes float in the sky, Rudra, a reserved physicist with iridescent wings, studies the mysteries of the universe-until a cosmic anomaly shakes everything he knows. Enter Aadhya, an eccentric inventor with a knack for chaos and a mischievous smile, whose latest invention accidentally drags Rudra into a whirlwind of magic, science, and adventure.
Together, they embark on a journey aboard a retrofitted submarine-airship hybrid, navigating surreal landscapes, unraveling cosmic secrets, and confronting the delicate balance between magic and gravity. Along the way, Rudra's heart begins to flutter, not just from the mysteries of the universe, but from Aadhya's unpredictable charm.
With a crew of misfits-including Arnav, a sardonic space mermaid, and Rudra's ex-partner Diya their mission is clear: stabilize the unstable black holes threatening their world. But as Rudra and Aadhya's bond deepens, they must learn to balance science and emotion, logic and spontaneity, before the universe collapses around them.
