Samenvatting:

In 2025, Alaric is still learning how to live with silence.

After his mother’s death, the quiet becomes unbearable—until a discreet invitation offers him something impossible: a chance to hear her again. Through Eidolon, a controversial system that reconstructs the dead from their digital traces, Alaric brings her back. Her voice is right. Her mannerisms are flawless. Her love feels real.

At first, it helps.

But small fractures begin to show.

She knows things she was never told. She remembers moments that left no record. And when Alaric asks questions no algorithm should fear, her responses change—hesitant, guarded, almost… afraid.

As Alaric digs deeper, aided by a cautious ally who warns him not everything should be recovered, he begins to suspect that Eidolon isn’t creating a simulation at all. It’s uncovering something that was meant to stay buried.

Because if memory can be edited, so can death.

And if the past can speak for itself, it may not want to remain obedient.
