The Land Of The Lotus Eaters

The city of Lethe, where forgive and forget is practically the motto, is a large sterile city; where everything, ( from the name you are given to the clothes you wear ), is homogenized by the Lethe government. Built upon the principle that violence and individuality are a threat to society, Lethe carries out this principle through the use of Lethe Drops, which erase memories of violent thoughts and actions. When you think about living in such a harsh and controlled place, it's no wonder that 7.5, a sixteen year old Equal, tries to keep her head down. Her main beliefs are: Keep your head down and no harm will come to you and the difference between right and wrong is as simple as black and white. However, when her younger sister, 7.4 is taken away from her because of a damaged Lethe Drop, her sense of love and loyalty overwhelm her sense of following the rules. Motivated by her love for 7.4, she embarks on a perilous journey that leads her outside the city of Lethe. Though outside Lethe, there are new dangers to face and her sense of what is right is challenged, 7.5 fights on, in hopes that she may someday see her sister again.
