Wax & Wing || Ryeji ✓

In a modern world where the divine is forgotten, gods and demigods are reduced to bedtime stories and dusty folklore, Yeji, a hardworking CEO drowning in deadlines and disillusionment, escapes to an old bookshop tucked between newer, glossier buildings - a quiet place where reality has always felt a little softer.

There, hidden in the spine of a weathered mythology book, is a letter. Faded ink. No stamp. No envelope. Dated over a hundred years ago.

It wasn't meant for her.
But it feels like it is.

As she begin to read, more letters appear - not mailed, not delivered, but waiting. Each one signed by a name she thought belonged only to myth. And each one knows a little too much about her.

Now, haunted by the words of someone who shouldn't exist, they're faced with a quiet unraveling..

Who wrote the letters?
Why do they feel so personal?
And why does it feel like they're being written... still?
