The bone-leaves are gone.
Overnight, the future vanishes from the Temple tree—
not shed, not destroyed, but taken.
Someone has gathered the future and hidden it inside a house that was always there and never noticed. A house with no door, no memory, and only one rule:
> Come alone.
Inside, Liora meets two impossible versions of herself:
One who remembers too much—
carrying every vow until memory itself becomes a burden.
And one who remembers too little—
surviving only because forgetting saved her.
The house shelters both, keeping them apart so neither breaks the other.
To free them, Liora must understand what the house is protecting:
not prisoners, but a vow gone wrong.
Once, a version of her rewrote the litany:
> I will remember for all.
It fractured her.
Memory split into two bodies—
one drowning in knowledge,
the other stripped bare.
Now Liora is asked to choose
which one continues into the world.
But she refuses the choice.
