Atlas, the immortal son of Cupid, has walked the earth for centuries, unseen for who he truly is. Caught between the divine and the mortal, he drifts from place to place, never staying long, never forming ties. People are drawn to him, but they do not see him. Not really.
In a world shaped by desire, Atlas navigates the illusions others project onto him while quietly unraveling the truth of his own existence. Shadows of old gods linger, memories refuse to stay buried, and something long dormant begins to stir.
As the lines between illusion and reality blur, Atlas is forced to confront what it means to be seen, to be known, and what it might cost to let someone in.
