Thalassa and Lysander's tangled love story began three years ago, and to this day, it remained unresolved, leaving her heart bruised and battered.

Countless nights saw Thalassa sobbing into her pillow, nursing her wounds alone in the darkness of her room. With each breakdown, she found a way to heal, only to crumble all over again, each cycle leaving her heart more exhausted than before.
