Elira has always heard whispers no one else can hear, until the day they speak back.

When a strange flame awakens in her hand, it doesn't burn. It listens. It reacts. And it marks her as something dangerous.

Cael is trained to hunt anomalies like her. He should contain her, not stay close. But the closer he gets, the stronger her power becomes, and the more it begins to respond to him.

As the whispers grow louder and reality starts to fracture, they are drawn toward the echo boundary, where the truth of what Elira is will finally be revealed.

Some powers are meant to be controlled.

Hers was never meant to exist.
