Rift Child
A Dust & Stardust Story
"To the ones who remember... Welcome home."
In a world where the stars have vanished and memory is currency, a girl named Mita awakens in the ash of a forgotten war - not because she remembers who she is, but because something remembers her.
Glowing with golden veins and haunted by dreams that don't belong to this lifetime, Mita is pulled into a world buried beneath silence: a forest that hums with ancient names, a tree that holds the stories of the lost, and a city built from starlight and sorrow. As she uncovers the truth of her identity - Asharaya, Daughter of the Rift - she realizes she is more than a survivor.
She is a signal.
A weapon born from wounds.
A god that chose to return.
But remembering comes with a price.
And not everyone wants the forgotten to rise.
Told in poetic, immersive language, Rift Child is a soul-myth for the neurodivergent, the spiritually awake, and the grief-born.
It's for the ones who never fit in because they weren't meant to -
they were meant to remember.
