The town gleams with the kind of charm that invites trust, and hides rot. Drawn back by questions that never died, she begins to unearth the stories no one dares speak aloud. He, a figure once celebrated for crafting illusions, finds his creations bleeding into the world around him.
Their paths collide, tangled in half-truths and distorted memories. What begins as a search for clarity becomes a descent into layered narratives, each more uncertain than the last. Characters from the past resurface with altered faces, motives hidden behind practiced sincerity. The boundaries between performance and confession, invention and history, begin to dissolve.
As trust erodes and time runs thin, they must confront a chilling possibility: some lies were never lies at all, they were warnings, ignored. And the mask isn’t just worn by others.
