The Rootless

"When the burden of ancient secrets becomes too much to bear, the hunger for intimacy will outweigh what one has been craving since forever..." Two strangers meet in a chatroom. Rhona is an inquisitive photographer with a penchant for solving mysteries. Aeolus claims to live a dangerous dual life and demands absolute anonymity. Despite the skeletons that he keeps in his closet, Aeolus lures Rhona into an enchanting question and answer game that soon goes further than they could have ever comprehended. What though, if the longing for emerges? How sustainable is a heart-to-heart contact when names and faces must remain shrouded? And why does Aeolus cling so rigidly to the alter ego of a mythical vampire? These questions remain unanswered... until a sick twist of fate drives the two away from the safe spot behind their computers. Disregard of the Code of Silence comes with ominous implications. Can Aeolus defy his roots while all the odds are against him? Is the Writing on the Wall really set in stone?
