Beschreibung
Enter Aurin, a metropolis cloaked in perpetual twilight, where dreams are currency and the subconscious reigns supreme. Obsidian skyscrapers pierce the violet sky, casting long shadows over alleyways teeming with dream-peddlers and ethereal night-walkers. Here, Sorya, a cartographer of the mind, meticulously charts the labyrinthine landscapes of the sleeping world, translating whispers of desire and fear into intricate diagrams.
But Sorya's ordered existence shatters when she's commissioned to map the dreams of Theron Vance, a comatose man rumored to hold a secret of cosmic significance. Within Theron’s mindscape, she discovers not a dying mind, but a breathtaking realm of crystalline structures and rivers of liquid moonlight, guarded by a chained entity of immense power. It offers Sorya a dangerous bargain: the very secrets of Aurin's existence in exchange for its freedom.
Drawn into a world of dream-thieves and power brokers, Sorya encounters Miranda Golden, a shrewd dream-merchant with a hidden agenda, and Joseph Olson, a psychiatrist haunted by his past. As she unravels Theron's dream, a terrifying truth emerges: Aurin itself is the entity's prison, woven from the collective unconscious of its citizens. The entity’s liberation could unravel reality, plunging the city into an abyss.
Torn between forbidden knowledge and the city's fate, Sorya navigates surreal dreamscapes and the treacherous political currents of Aurin. Unseen forces watch her every move, blurring the lines between dream and reality. Her investigation into Theron's past reveals a shared history with the entity, a connection shrouded in mystery and exploited by the clandestine Oneiric Order. They believe the entity's release will usher in an era of enlightenment, but their ambition blinds them to the true cost.
As Sorya delves deeper, she uncovers her own family’s entanglement with the Order and the entity, realizing her inherited gift is the key to Aurin’s survival. With the city on the brink of collapse, she must confront the entity and make a harrowing choice: maintain its imprisonment or risk unleashing unimaginable chaos. But what if freedom and survival aren't mutually exclusive? What if the key lies not in severing the connection, but in transforming it? In a climactic battle for Aurin’s soul, Sorya must rewrite the narrative of its collective unconscious, forging a new destiny where dreams and reality intertwine, and the city embraces the full spectrum of human experience.
