But vanishing is not easy when the past haunts you and the future forces you to face your most stubborn enemy: yourself.
Moreover, paradise is not as idyllic as it seems. Despite the apparent friendliness of the locals, Laro soon discovers that he has found himself in the middle of a centuries-old conflict in which legends and reality have blurred boundaries and everyone wants to use him for their own ends...
