Description

In a desert where spoken stories take physical form, Xochitl fulfills her village’s ancient duty by wandering alone and releasing its secrets into the wind. Her solitary life changes when she encounters Emilia, the guarded daughter of the ruler who conquered Xochitl’s home, and the two embark on a perilous journey through a landscape shaped by magic and memory. As night brings uncanny dangers and buried truths to the surface, they must confront the legacies of violence, the cost of belonging, and the possibility of love across seemingly impossible divides. Lyrical and dreamlike, this YA fantasy explores identity, healing, resilience, and the search for a place to call home.
