It happened in a parallel universe, somewhere in the distant future where love is a taboo in the world's greatest empire, it is said that the one who falls in love will suffer great losses, it can even cost a person's life. Why? Because love is treated as an illness, as a thing that can make a person lose their rationale.
Love is like a drug, it makes you happy temporarily, it gets you addicted and high. Slowly, you can feel your life relapse after this optimistic dream slowly changes into an individual's greatest nightmare. Betrayal, infidelity, change of heart and break-ups, these are things that can make an intellectual person dumb and fool, completely lovestruck.
Love is nothing but an illness, a thing that is not needed to exist.
However, in the small Kingdom of Thusha, love is treated as their salvation, their water to quench in amidst desert. Love for them is the most wonderful thing that could've existed, love is considered as a medicine and not a drug, it rehabilitates the human's heart and serves as a band-aid to an enormous hole in one's heart, it serves as a cure to a chronic disease, to an illness that does not have any medicine.
