Keeping the Balance

Synopsis

When we fight, it's a sign that someone is wrong. If it's wrong, it's because something needs balance. But what about when that imbalance meets another imbalanced one? Negative with negative is positive, right? Milena may not be a right person on her axes, but the state of balance one needs. With touches of humor, she turns a drama into a comedy in her own way, because not everything needs to be serious, but everything needs stability. Especially when one, two, three lives need a stumbling block from her.

Não era sobre os outros ou para os outros, mas a Milena demorou a se dar conta disso. Havia muitos polos negativos dentro de si, dispersos e guardados, mas uma vez à tona, livres, ela pode mudar a perspectiva deles. Agora é possível atribuir algo verdadeiramente positivo a eles. A jornada de quem luta para manter o equilíbrio é de eternas tentativas, de erros e acertos, para descobrir como e quando agir permitindo, claro, que o outro tenha seu espaço, sem assumir mais do que se deve. É a direção essencial para acertar o passo. Esta não é somente a história da Milena, é também de todos aqueles com quem ela dividiu um pouco de sua vida e recebeu grandes trocas. Família, amigos, aliados e, sim, alguns conhecidos, que foram encontrando seus lugares nos nossos corações. O grande final agora se apresenta, refazendo e reestruturando as relações em equilíbrio, daquele que, de verdade, vem de dentro. Nem sempre é sobre perdoar e muitas vezes é sobre se respeitar. Milena e sua turma descobrem o poder dos próprios caminhos: nunca sozinhos.

It was a mission. Mission is on its way, out of reach, very well secured, until shadows, reflections of the past, found their way back to kick whatever control they had in their hands. The old story told and told over and over then starts to show holes, suddenly holes. More than visible, they become obvious. It was a plan, an escape. It was running, but poorly structured and poorly resolved. There was a lot of that story to be told, to be understood. To be accepted and redone. And even if ignored, it found its way to infiltrate, either in the head or in the heart. And in other hearts. What is it to point out the mistakes of others without owning up to your own? Negative with negative is positive, right? The stumbles were given, the lives, intertwined, the theater, unveiled. In the midst of the day-to-day struggle, Milena and company learn the "hard way" how things work and should work. What state are they in and should they be in. That it is possible to walk the narrowest rope if you have the necessary security. If you have... Balance. But are you prepared to give in? To accept? Accept, finally, to reestablish this balance? Of, summarily, to believe that from that loss can come intense profits? Hardly, perhaps. Every end is room for a fresh start. And, of course, openness to new odysseys.

In São Jerônimo das Pedras, the sky begins to descend over the rooftops, and Ofélia, a restorer accustomed to fixing objects of difficult temperament, discovers that even the firmament can have poorly made seams. Among insubordinate umbrellas, impossible cities, and small inconveniences, an extraordinary occurrence transforms the lives of people who believed they knew their place in the world well enough. The Year the Sky Came Down Low explores belonging, the bonds between generations, the fear of change, and the difficult art of allowing what we love to find new paths. A story about departures, reunions, and the things we must learn to let go, even when we devote our entire lives to preserving them.

In the beginning of all things, before time was counted, the Void shaped the two fundamental forces of Erion: the Light of Nazari and the Shadow of Apolion. Decreed never to coexist in a single being, these forces collapsed when envy corrupted the darkness, spawning monsters and the Seven Deadly Sins. Eras later, when the fabric of the world threatens to give way, Elrick appears: a young man forged in pain and the assassin arts who breaks the most primordial rule of the cosmos. Mastering the four natural elements and uniting Light and Shadow, he discovers that his draconic blood and his destiny are intertwined with the supreme force of Creation: the legendary Seventh Element, the Void.

Founded in 1389, among the mountains that divide France and Switzerland, Saint Orpheus is an institution surrounded by centuries of forbidden knowledge, forgotten traditions, and stories that few dare to mention. Behind its ancient walls, the past is never truly dead (and some truths should remain buried). At twenty-one years old, Lucien is about to discover that his entire life has been built on a lie. Heir to a lineage long erased from history, he carries within himself something that predates even the ancient celestial orders: the Original Darkness. But Saint Orpheus is not the only place interested in his destiny. Aurelian and Samael are two presences impossible to ignore. Fallen angels, united by an ancient oath and by secrets they refuse to share, both seem to know far more about Lucien than they should. One awakens his curiosity; the other, his distrust. As the boundaries between the Firmament, the Veil, and the Abyss begin to become less secure, Lucien will need to discover who he truly is and why his existence seems to threaten an order that has survived for centuries.
