IN A WORLD WHERE WEATHER EXTREMES ARE AS PERSISTENT AS SUNRISE AND SUNSET, YOU FIGHT OR YOU HIDE. Most people in Veerden are born with the ability to tame one of the four elements - fire, air, water, or earth. Without the tamers, humanity would have lost the battle with nature long ago. In her youth, Kyra grew up with peers who were able to deflect wind or make a fire with willpower. She spent years telling herself that she was like them, but insipits like her are naturally barred from the tamer arts and powerless against nature's forces. What use is her sword against strong winds, heavy rain, and lightning strikes? When a storm comes, twenty-year-old Kyra has to hide inside with the children. But how much longer can she do that when all she wants to do is fight?

My dearest Mr. Darcy, allow me to make a sassy prediction: one day, you will read my name on this book cover, and by the time you realize it, you will be reading this letter. Awareness will strike you like lightning; you will drop your act and feel in your bones that you are the one I wrote it to. Pride, then, will take your ego to the highest heights as you remember our time together, but the prejudice resulting from the same period will be the one causing your fingers to tremble and your breath to falter; you will be taking the book home. What's more, I venture to say that, somehow, no matter where I might be, I will know it too. It's an inexplicable feeling, weird but wagerable. In the meantime, I leave you with a more daring question than the single "why?" messing with your head as soon as you started reading me: love rules the world, but as innocent and ardently as it may be, can it conquer it all? Yours truly, the author

Charlotte Engemann was born on the 13th of June, 2037, 16 years before the outbreak of the Weeping. Her diary was found on the 19th of October, 2113, on an abandoned farm near Winterkasten, a small town in Hesse, Germany. Researchers have restored and translated the worn paper to the best of their abilities, providing a small glimpse of life before and during the Weeping. It is unknown how long Charlotte survived after the outbreak, as no other diaries or pieces of writing have been found, nor were there any signs of a body. ___________________________________ - Restored by Emilian Lang, head researcher of the Herrmann Schutz Institute, 12.07.2113 - - Translated into English by Lukas Werner-Thomson, researcher of the Herrmann Schutz Institute, 03.08.2113 -

Would I ever be the same person, after you left me fighting for myself? I guess not. Never would I've imagined, finding something so unique as our bound. Never in a million years. But that's the thing about healing. You grow - learning to live a life without that special person there for you. Celest: Some people say I'm a walking sunshine. Theodore says I should never change that about me. But how could I not, when he left me and took all of my happiness with him? I try to be that person for him. I really do. But the grief left me utterly alone in the dark. All the shimmers of hope are gone, but are they really? Sometimes we find hope in the strangest places, or even in a person, one would never thought of as the last shimmer of hope before.
