1994.

After the Other Side crumbled, Evelia expected to vanish with it, just another lost soul fading into nothingness. But fate had other plans.

Instead of peace or oblivion, she opened her eyes to find herself trapped in a prison world. A shadow of 1994, looping endlessly in silence and rainless days. And she wasn't alone. Damon Salvatore and Bonnie Bennett were there too, equally confused, equally cursed.

At first, Evelia believed they were the only three souls condemned to this strange, static world.

She was wrong.

So very wrong.
