"Not all sacred places are safe. But some strangers are worth the danger."
When Lira volunteered for a simple thesis project, she never expected to find herself trapped in an ancient temple buried beneath reality - where puzzles whisper, time folds, and danger stalks in silence.
Alongside Kael, a mysterious boy marked by the same haunting visions, she uncovers a buried history and a choice that could change everything.
In a place where no one was supposed to return, they dared to survive - not because they were strong, but because they chose each other.
A one-shot story of danger, memory, and an unexpected love forged in the cracks of fate.
