Have you ever thought about how strange it is to be a human, and the fact that we exist at all?  Hanna Kellner, an ordinary and depressed young woman, returns from her university back to her hometown in search of her best friend Aurora, who has recently gone missing.  A mysterious stranger appears and Hanna soon has reason to believe he is responsible for Aurora going missing.  Hanna follows the stranger into a new reality where the capacity of the human brain is amplified through the execution of transmutation, skin transformation, psychic and natural manifestation.  In this plane of reality, there are species that have never gone extinct, and there are species of human that have evolved more fully in their physical form.  As we would see them as angels and demons, witches, and water humanoids, they see themselves as us and them.

Memories of past lives bubble up. Ghosts and auras are visible to the human eye, and this world is full of beings who are not quite human—questioning the definition of what it means to be “human.”

Do you know what it is like to be disconnected with reality? To lose your sense of what is real?  To see ghosts and signs?  What about losing your mind?
