Curses flew from my mouth as I looked back into the mirror. The face before me was indeed handsome, but it wasn't mine. The face resembled that of a prince. "Shit, shit, shit." Based on those features, I knew exactly whose face it was. It was none other than Kai, The minor side character of the novel that I wrote. My heart raced again, but this time not from fear—more like a mix of confusion and disbelief. I leaned closer to the mirror, my hands trembling as I touched the surface, half-expecting the reflection to shatter. "How is this even possible?"

No matter if he was crawling on all fours with pacifier, drawing a red house on a green hill, fishing, killing, or even sleeping, the question persisted. This is the story of a boy that started from zero. A boy that took up what no one else took. What everyone else denied.

I wake up each morning only to discover that yesterday never happened the way I remember it. My colleagues reference meetings I never attended. My belongings shift locations when I'm not looking. My reflection blinks before I do. As the boundaries between reality and delusion blur, I begin to notice him - the other me who wears my face but isn't quite right. The one with the smile that never reaches his eyes. The one who leaves cryptic messages telling me I'm "already too late." When I look in the mirror now, sometimes it's not me looking back. The harder I chase the truth, the more fragmented my days become. Am I losing my mind, or is something far more sinister at play? The answer lies buried in my past - in memories I've desperately tried to forget. In a psychological thriller where time itself seems broken, I must confront the question that terrifies me most: If I can't trust my own reflection, who am I really?

In the shattered reflection of AuE—Imbragea—truth is spoken in errors, and answers whisper through paradoxes. When Y’z Yaggdrasil, the cosmic lattice binding existence, is severed, reality fractures into a labyrinth of shifting perceptions. Time loops unpredictably, memories rewrite themselves, and the laws of nature obey contradictions rather than constants. A scholar cursed with paradox sight, sees the world both as it was and as it never could be. Drawn into Imbragea’s chaotic depths, he searches for the remnants of Y’z Yaggdrasil, hoping to undo the severance. But the deeper he ventures, the more he questions if unity was ever the natural state of existence—or if fragmentation was the inevitable truth all along. Guided by a sentient echo of himself, pursued by beings who exist only in forgotten futures, a world where logic and contradiction coexist, the only way forward is to embrace the impossible. But as the boundaries between self and shadow blur, one question remains: If Imbragea is only a reflection, what was it meant to reflect?
