Nora is a healer caught in the grip of a devastating plague that robs people of their memories and emotions. Desperate to save those she loves, she has watched the kingdom fall into chaos, until a mysterious stranger named Kalen arrives, claiming he can end the plague.
But Kalen's powers come with a heavy price, and Nora soon finds herself questioning whether she can trust him, or if his touch will bring more harm than healing. As they journey together, Nora must confront a choice that could cost her everything she holds dear: save her world at the cost of her past, or risk everything to hold on to the memories she's already lost.
The kingdom is dying. But for Nora, saving it might mean losing herself forever.
