n the cold of a long winter Skylette trudges up the slopes of Aetherpeak during a heavy snowfall near her former home village, Mistyhollow.
However, the journey to her destination also stirs up long-repressed memories of her days living in the Church's orphanage and her childhood friend, Blair—along with a particular nun named Sister Aryiah who she always thought of as family. Plus, she sees vague glimpses of the nearby sunflower-covered meadows that glows so bright it catches the sunlight, but in winter all that remains are desolate fields.
Eventually when Skylette finally reaches a certain point up the mountain… it's there, she finds a glowing oval object that quickly attracts her attention. But she also runs into two very different strangers… one who is a fiery-spirited thief, and the other who is an ice phoenix.
What awaits Skylette in this dreary little village of Mistyhollow which is tucked beneath the mountains?
Of course, there is also signs of something dark and sinister brewing somewhere… that may turn into a huge storm, perhaps… but not everyone can survive its wrath.
And regrettably… Skylette gets stuck in the crossfires of the situation. But she's still desperately wishing to ignore it all—to avoid the cold future rushing towards her—since Skylette is always dreaming of open and free skies.
