Nothing exists beyond their universe. Adama is quiet and introverted while Banel is passionate and rebellious, and they’re destined to love each other for all eternity. But their relationship is severely tested by their community’s conventions, because in their little village there’s no room for passion, and even less space for the chaos it brings…
