The curse wasn't forgotten. It was waiting. Riyana never asked for second chances. Not in truth. Not in life. But when a curse breathes her name before she remembers it herself, she learns that the shadows haven't just followed her-they created her. They weren't just below her-they were inside her heart. Rajgarh is the kind of place that pretends to forget. Where people are happy thinking about today, and dream about just tomorrow. People are content, at least that's what it looks like. To her colleagues, Riyana is the quiet, overthinking outsider. To the mirrors of her temporary house, she's an anomaly. But to the shadows, she is something far older. Something they've been waiting to reclaim. And they aren't the only ones watching. Betrayed once by those who summoned her, Riyana must decide: Will she be the girl who burns quietly, or the flame that sets it all ablaze?

Aerlene Ray awakens at the threshold between life and death, her senses sharpened beyond human limits, her soul marked by invisible wounds. Behind the mirrors, unfamiliar voices keep calling along with a dangerous figure who shadows her every step. As the heavens fall silent and the darkness begins to collect souls still in debt, Aerlene must traverse five forgotten realms, guided by a cursed immortal and a spirit-summoner seeking redemption from the shadows of a haunted past. Their goal: to uncover ancient relics, seen only by those who have died and returned. Fragments of a power capable of shaking the foundations of fate... or erasing it entirely. In a world where no destiny comes without a price... What does free will mean if every road leads to the same end? And who truly holds rule over life and death: God, the Devil... or your own heart?
