One day, Elias Jund had been seeing off his sister as she moved to the capital for a business opportunity. The next, Elias finds himself on an island where all the water has been replaced with ink, the sun has a face, and carnivorous plants roam.

If that wasn't enough, his entire world has been destroyed as easily as one might scrap a failed project. He hopes that his sister survived as he did, and wants to find her.
A man known as the Azure Mage promises to give him the answers he seeks, if Elias befriends the mage's daughter Serena. But as Elias spends time with her, he learns that there is more to this mage, this island, and Serena than he initially assumed.
