This story is something I can only describe as a beautiful fever dream.

The prose are extremely lyrical and deeply felt. I wouldn't say this particularly has a vivid world or mind blowing plot points. But, it's was some of the most beautiful language I've ever read, and incredibly heart-felt. This story is about finding someone that understands you, even if they are on a different side of a multidimensional time-war.
