The Silence of Time It was a place where time seemed to hold the breath. A garden hidden among forgotten mountains, where "forbidden existences" remained petrified, trapped in postures of struggle, love and anguish. No one knew who had created that place, or why. It was only said that here lay those who defied the rules of a universe that no one understood. Nearby villagers called it "The Garden of Anathemas," and avoided getting close. They said that the statues whispered at dusk, that if you listened carefully, you could feel the echo of their last words before they were caught in stone. For Lía, an archaeologist seeking redemption, the Garden was not a legend, but an answer. When he crossed the boundaries that the wind marked with its howl, he did not imagine that the fate of entire worlds would be in his hands. Nor that by touching the cold skin of one of those figures, it would awaken something much older, much more dangerous. That day, the Garden breathed again. But he did... to take revenge.
