Herai

A mysterious all-powerful being watches the unfolding stories of two alternative realities he has created. In one reality, an acquaintance of this being has placed himself in the world. His presence affects the story in the most significant of ways, though his motivations are only founded in love...

In both of these worlds, the beautiful but naive Herai has just reached adulthood. The underground stone city in which Herai lives is a dark network of torchlit tunnels, patrolled by guards. The city's residents are cocooned from the people Outside - savages they believe threaten their existence.

In one reality, Herai is tasked with navigating the Outside, with all its dangers, in a desperate attempt to save the city from an impending war. In the other reality, Herai is brutally attacked. Who is behind the violence and what was their intention? No one is beyond suspicion, and the entire fabric of life in the city is threatened.
