Plunge into the bioluminescent depths of Tefrana, a city sculpted from leviathan bones and powered by the memories of living jellyfish. Within the Abyssal Academies, mnemojellies pulse with the city's collective consciousness, a symphony of light and memory. Elara Vance, a brilliant young inventor, can hear the ocean's whispers, and her latest creation, a neuro-symbiotic translator, promises to unlock the deepest secrets of Tefrana’s past. But some secrets are buried for a reason.
A fractured memory, a chilling echo of a forgotten cataclysm, shatters the carefully curated narrative of Tefrana's history. Elara’s pursuit of truth leads her to Rhys Alden, a disgraced historian, and Xylia Quinn, a keeper of the mnemojellies, each harboring their own doubts about the ruling Council of Tides. Together, they uncover a conspiracy that reaches the highest levels of power, a desperate attempt to control the city’s very memory.
Within hidden chambers and amongst untamed mnemojellies, they discover a truth more devastating than Elara could have imagined: a catastrophic seismic shift triggered by the city’s founders, a sacrifice made by the sentient ocean, and a Council desperate to bury it all. Hunted by genetically modified cephalopods with the power to erase minds, Elara, Rhys, and Xylia must navigate the treacherous currents of Tefrana, battling not just for their own memories but for the soul of the city itself.
Can Elara awaken Tefrana's collective consciousness and expose the Council's lies before the truth is lost forever? Or will the city’s vibrant memories be rewritten, condemning its people to a fabricated past? Dive into the Whispers of the Forgotten Cataclysm and uncover the secrets that lie beneath the shimmering surface of a city built on lies.
