Paris, 1885.

Five years ago, a musical genius had lost his songbird. Two days after her egress, Erik had lost all hope of having a life as a normal person. But soon an unforseen turn of events crosses his path, and Erik sees a new light at the end of the tunnel.

As the years pass, Erik is once more drawn to a young woman's alluring voice; a voice that attracts Parisians to the Opera House like bees to honey. For the first time in years he is inspired to compose, sing, and possibly --- teach. But these precious times will cost him dearly, and sooner or later he will have to make his choice...

Does he steer away from this new inspiration, and the possibility of being accepted? 

Or will he, once again, resume his role as the Phantom of the Opera?

***

For five years, Aria had lived in the world-renowned Paris Opera House as a talented chorus girl and dancer. During the allotted time, Aria has fashioned a double façade. No one, not even her dearest friends, know who she really is. Nor do they know the incident that occurred five years ago, which altered the course of Aria's life forever. 

Aria has known the stories of the man who Parisians call the Phantom of the Opera. She also recalls a similar story she'd heard countless times as a child; but never had she pegged it to be true. As time runs its course, and newer information arises, Aria begins to wonder...

Are the Phantom of the Opera and the Angel of Music one of the same person?
