Shadows In The Mirror VOL.1: A Genealogical Curse

It began with an inheritance. It became a curse.​When Eleanor (30) receives a massive, antique mirror—a silent relic of a history she tried to erase—she knows it's more than furniture. The moment her fingertips touch the cool glass, an electric shock is immediately followed by a fleeting, icy wave of profound, unfamiliar sorrow. She hasn't just inherited an object; she has closed a circuit on a genealogical chain of guilt.​The mirror is the sealed cage for the past: the perpetual echo of the ruthless patriarch, Elias Reginald, who committed an "e;unforgivable deed"e; by sacrificing an innocent soul named Anna Lee to escape his own moral corruption.​As Eleanor races to find the forgotten name of the victim, the Ancestral Shadow escalates the attack:​Her own reflection pulls an amoral grin that causes the physical world to shudder.​The Shadow breaks her social chain, isolating her from the world of reason.​To resist the ultimate temptation of fusion, Eleanor must perform a desperate, physical act: viciously scratching a permanent scar into the frame of the mirror, marking the beginning of the "e;battle for the definition of the self."e;​Can she recognize the suffering of the past, lay Anna Lee's sorrow to rest, and emerge as the New Owner of her own purified will, or will the shadow define her future?​The battle is not fought in the glass, but in the depths of the soul.
