Sinossi

“—Icarus isn't back yet,” Andromeda commented, adjusting the gears with her fingers. His pale hands have turned black, smeared to the wrists with grease- And the sun is almost setting. Ianthe stared at the Exiled Princess. The ominous wind of that dying afternoon blew dark hair against her face with the same gravity with which a condemned man would draw his last breath. "He has to hurry," Ianthe murmured. "The moon is waning." Bad things happen in the dark.” The Dead Goddess, the Fallen Angel, and the Exiled Princess are the last keepers of the Lighthouse, which protects the mortal realm from darkness.

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?

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.
