In a desolate landscape near a crumbling gothic city haunted by restless shadows, a young girl stands as the lone guardian of a massive, invaluable egg. Her isolated existence in a hidden lair is disrupted by the arrival of a mysterious young man who, over time, earns her guarded trust. Their interactions are minimal yet profound, touching on enigmatic philosophical and theological themes, while she reveals to him a collection of remarkable fossils and historical scientific artworks. The narrative culminates in a startling and ambiguous conclusion, leaving numerous questions unresolved and inviting a wide array of interpretations.
