Chacha must conform in order to avoid execution, but conforming is its own psychological hell. Chacha needs a genuine friend to survive, but how can they find one when it's too dangerous to trust?

 

Chacha is a citizen of Stormland, growing into adulthood under the oppressive regime of the God-King. Five centuries ago, the God-King created the divine process – a holy method of shaping masculine teenagers into the purest gender, men. Chacha is a teenager who faces the possibility of undergoing the divine process, but Chacha knows they will never become a man. Chacha is bent, which is an illegal gender punishable by death. They've never been good at hiding their bent nature and they believe it will only be a matter of time before they're caught. Chacha begins to see the God-King for what he is, but doesn't know what a gentle person like themself can do.

 

Chacha feels drawn to a clever and beautiful teenager named Setha. Chacha can't risk showing vulnerability to Setha, but what Chacha doesn't realize is that trusting another person is resistance. Chacha will need Setha, not only to survive, but to grow strong enough to fight.
