Self sacrifice isn't pretty and poetic. It's ugly and brutal when you don't have a choice.
Saoirse has an unimaginably strong superpower.
She can save a dying person as long as she swaps places with them. Her power isn't merciful; it keeps her from dying but she can still feel the pain of death from the person.
She's been living in a hospital from the moment she was born. But she doesn't mind. Her childhood friend, Evander does everything to protect her from the outside world. He's a famed hero outside the hospital walls, for defeating a long-standing, brutal tyrant.
But everything starts unravelling and the lies and truth become blurred with each other.
With the appearance of a King obsessed with her power and the God of Death's strongest soldier emerging to take back her power, everything becomes infinitely complex.
Faced with tough decisions and even tougher situations, she must do anything to survive.
