The moon is merely a rock. A thief stealing light from the sun.
Yet people still romanticize it.
Ophelia has never understood why.
The breach between reality and fiction is fading.
A dangerous descent where forbidden desires thrash violently against clinical cynicism. In this psychological battlefield, there will not be a single winner.
As Ophelia journeys down the darkest corridors of her subconscious, she uncovers secrets best left buried. With every line crossed, the phantom gaze tightens its grip.
Will she find a way out, or will she completely give in to the temptation?-
"Some temptations are forbidden. And some secrets are better left untouched."

The end of Louis William Rhodes' legacy, or is it? Benedict is a very tranquil boy, you could say.

However, while some things are noted to be eternally in a loss, some things are noted to be eternally on a route different from their past.

Of Mist and Monarch
The knife kissed his throat-cold and very precise. ❝Don't move,❞ Morgana's voice said behind him. ❝Not a muscle.❞ Sage froze. He felt her breath at his nape, warm against the blade's promise.She knew exactly where to place a blade. ❝How did you get out of your room?❞ he asked calmly. ❝Step forward.❞ He obeyed. She guided him through the narrow corridor, backing him against stone, trapping him there. The knife pressed closer now-close enough to hurt. ❝Drop your sword.❞ It hit the floor. ❝You're going to get me out,❞ she said. ❝Out of your reach. I don't care where you send me-as long as I never have to see Procris Saxon again.❞ Sage smiled faintly. ❝And why would I do that?❞ The blade bit, just barely. ❝Because if you don't,❞ she said, ❝I finish what I started.❞ Silence coiled between them. Then Sage moved. In a breath, the knife was his. Her back met stone. His forearm blocked her escape, the blade resting beneath her jaw. ❝You bastard,❞ she hissed. ❝Careful,❞ Sage said softly. ❝Any movement, and this becomes... unfortunate.❞ Her pulse fluttered wildly beneath the knife. He felt it. She knew he did. ❝Do it,❞she said. ❝You've wanted to since the day we met.❞ Sage leaned closer,Their eyes locked. ❝Tell me,❞.he said slowly , dangerously,.❝why I shouldn't.❞ *** Power is never inherited cleanly.
