Some reckonings grow slowly. Some are planted in youth and harvested in heartbreak.

No one leaves for good. Memphis Pearle thought she could. She told herself the past was over. That closure was something you could earn and leave behind. Until the roads bent strangely and flowers began to whisper her back. What started as a letter and a fracture becomes a return to something far older than home: a myth blooming in her absence. To go forward, she must pass through the places she tried to outrun.

In Act III: Threshold to Blue, Memphis is lured into the dream-steeped town of Poppy Hypnosis, where pink fog drifts over poppy fields and time bends like a vinyl left on slow spin. Here she meets Luke, the Bicolor Dahlia-Vaughn's inner child, hidden away like a secret bloom-and the witches who demand she face her fractured past, embodied by the child she left behind.

In Act IV: Rose Impact, Memphis's path ends in Paradise, a once-prosperous ward now veiled in rose-colored soot and a spellbound pink fog that halts every traveler. Roses crest the ruins like living constellations, while defiant scarlet poppies murmur secrets at her feet. Here she is welcomed-and warned-by the Moros Veritas, three truth-spinning sisters whose midnight cauldron conjures both prophecy and a mischievous Cupid eager to mend what grief has torn.

What began as a return becomes a descent. The past doesn't stay buried here-it blooms.
