For years, anyone who dared to play an instrument, hum a tune, or even listen to music was condemned to burn. Music abandoned the world, taking with it the gift of language and expression. Silence reigned supreme. Humanity withered - bodies rejected nourishment, instincts fell quiet, and the only desire that remained was the yearning to hear a single note again.

In this bleak world, a young girl watches helplessly as her parents and grandmother slowly fade away, their lives slipping through her fingers. Unsure how to bring music back to them, she embarks on a journey to rediscover its lost magic. Along the way, she meets a mysterious orchestra conductor who reveals an extraordinary secret: the art of awakening the music hidden within others - through the power of imagination. But the road is perilous, and her resolve will be tested at every turn.

This is a story of hope, defiance, and humanity's unrelenting need for art - even in a world that tries to silence it forever.
