In the middle of Arka Sampa-Rio in 2069, there is a Café hidden amidst the dirt and winding paths that attracts an always unique clientele that is after the drinks of the famous Bartender Maxine. But this story isn't about DreamScape, it's about the lives of two women who have known each other for a long time but never had the time to connect. This is the story of Maxine and Emma during the troubled Christmas period. And like life in a Megalopolis like Arka, it can be so full of people, but at the same time extremely lonely.

We live in a cocoon. Hostages of a need for perception that does not always reflect our expectations. We live on the pragmatism of what is real, and the surreal something distant that only permeates the nexus. That which fundamentalizes the reason for being. But is there the possibility of exchanging Soma, the essence of our being, the flesh that transports our Soul, our Anima for another Soma? Would we make ourselves just a vessel of flesh for our souls, or did we manage to keep our essences untouchable? Broderick was in a near-fatal car accident, and his brain is doomed. But his doctor just calls him Spinelli. After all, who would Spinelli be? Who would Broderick be? Just who?

In the year 3075, humanity has achieved extraordinary technological advances. Machines coexist with people, cities are dominated by gigantic corporations, and technology is capable of replacing almost any part of the human body. But not even a thousand years of progress were enough to build a better world. While the richest live surrounded by privileges, millions of people survive in a society marked by inequality, violence, and corruption. It is in this world that Nia lives, a domestic robot who works in the residence of an elderly businessman. Her existence is simple: clean, organize, and carry out the tasks for which she was programmed. At least it should be. In a city where everything has a price, a police officer tries to find his place within a corrupt system, while a woman connected to the criminal underworld does what is necessary to survive. Three distinct lives, in a society that seems to have forgotten the meaning of humanity. In a world where machines become increasingly human, what remains of humanity in people?

"The fire in the hearth never truly goes out. It merely waits for new firewood." Apparently abandoned, this old mansion harbors countless horrors, and those who dare to explore its secrets may discover that the greatest danger lurks not only between its walls, but also among themselves. Whether because they received a mysterious invitation, because a friend disappeared, or simply out of curiosity to explore the manor, everyone will eventually discover that, inside, nothing happens by chance — except, perhaps, the arrangement of the rooms. If they want to survive, they will need to pay attention to every detail and unravel the residence's greatest secret before it is too late. But one question remains: why, with each new visit, does the fire in the hearth seem to burn more intensely?

The world has ended. There is no future left on the outside, nor humanity waiting to be rescued. What exists is a reality preserved by the will of a single person who keeps the memory of the world and everything that remains of humanity. The problem is that not everyone agrees that this existence should continue... Eine, a survivor of the catastrophe that destroyed human reality, dedicates her existence to ending the last traces of the people who were once at the center of these events. But, being unable to interfere directly in a dream that still continues, she must find hosts among the people who inhabit it. Her new attempt is Claire Williams. At nineteen, Claire has very ordinary concerns: university, the debts she took on to study, and the future she believes she is building. Now, however, she shares her own consciousness with a young man who knows a reality she cannot accept. As the boundaries between memory and existence begin to dissolve, those who walk between the two extremes will have to confront a question for which there may be no right answer: when the world has already ended, what does it mean to keep living?

There is a kind of silence that weighs more than any war cry. It is the silence of the gap between the oaks across the frozen ground, the steam of a soup shared only with longing and the constant fear of waiting for someone who may never return. In Patavium, Aemilia became the lady of a home haunted by uncertainty. Torn between the relentless responsibility of governing the land and the intimate torment of not knowing her husband's fate, she refuses to succumb to despair. To protect the property and those who depend on it, Aemilia will have to find strength where only solitude remains, proving that dignity and love can be shields as sturdy as iron.
