Elara never imagined that a single letter could change everything. When the mysterious invitation arrives at her bookshop in the forgotten town of Greyhollow, it promises something she thought impossible: a journey to Lumière, the fabled City of Light that exists only in legends and childhood dreams.
But this is no ordinary voyage. The path to Lumière winds through the Veil of Forgotten Dreams, where reality bends and shadows whisper secrets. Elara must navigate treacherous waters aboard a ship that sails between worlds, guided by a captain who speaks in riddles and a crew who’ve all lost something precious.
As the mists part to reveal the gleaming spires of Lumière, Elara discovers the city’s radiant beauty hides a darker truth. Every light casts a shadow, and every dream demands a price. The invitation that brought her here wasn’t random—it was a summons. Someone in the City of Light has been waiting for her, someone who knows about the gift she’s kept hidden her entire life.
