Ice and Blood X Carroll

In a country of philosophers where everyone's thoughts are transparent, telepathy is an innate talent, but due to the long-term peace, the ethnic group has forgotten how to touch the real trauma. The young girl Carol lost her motherly sister, the chief priest Youlandel, in the tragedy. She was locked in a castle of bloody memories and loneliness, refusing all comfort. Until one summer night, a silver-haired boy appeared in front of her window with a firefly. Yin also suffered from the pain of bereavement, and was also burdened with an unknown "abnormality": not only could he interfere with and soothe the intense emotions of others with his thoughts, but he also built a barrier in his heart to block all prying eyes. In this world of transparent thoughts, he is the only solitary person with secrets. He became Carol's only driftwood, using his secret power to pull her back from the edge of despair again and again. However, those who build the wall are also trapped within the wall. He offered understanding and protection, but no one saw the fatigue hidden beneath his perfect appearance, as well as his desire to "be truly seen." This is not a one-way redemption. This is a story about two-way healing - how Carol grows from a fragile survivor to a person who can detect and embrace Yin's complete shadow; and how Yin learns to let go of his guard and allow his vulnerability to be tenderly accepted. From the morning dew where fireflies burn out, to the ruins where roses bloom, two souls pierced by the same sorrow will learn how to find a way to let their true selves breathe and shine in each other's shadows and glimmers. It's a tender narrative about loss, secrets, understanding, and how two lonely planets become each other's gravitational pull and light.
