Synopsis

When the living essence of three girls are put at risk, giving room for a second essence within themselves, even their hyper developed fantasy world might not be enough to contain their new found ambitions.  Another story of another world, these three girls must adapt to their new essence, all while each is left to question if they are truly still even alive.
While this story is a sequel of the previous story in the trillogy, it is also fully capable of standing alone in its own light, taking place in a distant corner of a Celese returning readers will be otherwise incapable of recognizing.  However, the events of the story are a spoiler for the previous book, in case that matters to anyone.  This story takes place over two centuries after the events of Vitae Memorandum, when Celese had developed into an advanced world, improved to a point that it is much like modern-day Earth while still using the gift instead of technology.  The Aethyx languages are still present in this book, and even English still exists in the world after the events of the previous book, but are much less of a focus after the same closing events of the previous book.  What is instead important is how the ending events of the previous book had resulted in the start of the Instrumentation Era, and exactly how the gift translates in a modern-day sense.  While this book is still effectively a fantasy world of its own kind of magic, it isn’t the classical medieval scene that would be typical for such a story.  The laws of science still do not exist in Celese, but that didn’t stop it from developing into something that looks similar enough.  Earth itself still remains present on the other side of the veil, and its previous exposure continues to shape and advance Celese into the world it has become.
This story contains scenes exibiting mania and similar dark themes, as it goes to great length to explore concepts of life and death.  While the degree of such themes should not be considered to be as serious compared to matters such as actual horror, the psychological depth is still siginifcant enough to be potentially concerning for people sensitive to matters of this nature, such as any individuals with concerns questioning matters of suicide, mental harm, or a variety of emotional injuries.  While none of these subjects actually occur in the story, readers who are currently troubled by such matters may find themselves considering old wounds if they are especially capable of empathy while reading, which could lead to furthered emotional or mental stress.  Readers with a high capacity for empathy may find themselves troubled by concerns regarding any potential lack of mental/emotional control as well as considerations regarding the meaning of death.  Readers who appreciate subtle dark themes in a story may instead find this to be an interesting twist of the same idea.
