In the world of Nurevia, emotions don’t just shape lives—they shape the land itself. Forests twist with vines of regret, deserts burn with the fires of rage, and cities drown in floods of collective grief. The earth trembles not from tectonic shifts but from the weight of human sorrow, and the skies darken with the storms of unspoken pain. At the heart of this fractured world lies Nurevia, a city on the brink of collapse, its streets cracked and its people drowning in despair. 

Enter the Cartographers of Empathy, a secretive order of emotion-mappers tasked with navigating the volatile emotional landscapes that threaten to tear the world apart. Their leader, Lysio Trenn, is a man burdened by guilt, haunted by a past failure that cost lives. When he discovers an ancient map hidden in the ruins of a forgotten library, he uncovers a prophecy of humanity’s emotional collapse—and a glimmer of hope. The map speaks of the Fountain of Resonance, a mythical source of emotional harmony that once balanced the world. But the map is incomplete, its fragments scattered across territories scarred by emotional rifts. 

To decipher it, Lysio must ally with Rhenna, a rebellious empathic thief whose ability to “steal” emotions makes her both a dangerous ally and a necessary one. Rhenna is a woman of contradictions—her heart hardened by betrayal, yet her empathy so acute it borders on pain. Together, they embark on a perilous journey through a landscape where emotions manifest as physical phenomena. From the Forest of Regret to the Desert of Rage, they confront their own buried traumas while piecing together the map’s secrets. 

But their quest is not without adversaries. A powerful corporation, led by the enigmatic and ruthless Kara Caldwell, seeks to exploit the Fountain’s power for control, weaponizing despair on an unprecedented scale. As Lysio and Rhenna journey deeper into the heart of the world’s emotional scars, they uncover a conspiracy that threatens to unravel the fragile balance of the world.
