Nara, a teenager, awakens from a dream to discover that time itself is fragile. An accidental journey forty years into the past alters a pivotal event, fracturing her present. Her life becomes suspended between two realities: one familiar, the other a haunting tapestry of memory, dream, or perhaps, destiny.
Along her path, ancestral voices unveil forgotten secrets, animals speak, and an artificial intelligence offers glimpses of divergent futures. Yet, it is her own body that confounds her most: in moments of extreme tension, butterfly wings erupt from her back ? not a magical boon or a saving grace, but the startling emblem of an identity that refuses to be confined to a single form or narrative.
This is not the story of a young woman's quest for self-discovery, but of one learning to navigate existence without a fixed definition. Her sense of self shifts, shatters, and reforms. Girl, woman. Victim, unknown power. In Nara's world, time and memory coil and uncoil, and truth, much like her own being, is pieced together from fragments.
A novel about the crucible of maturation, where identity is forged not from certainties, but from doubts, losses, and the unceasing current of what is yet to come.
