Midorii: Spirits in the Waters. The Ilonian Chronicles, #1

In the mountain village of Han-Nuk, silence is sacred and caste is law. Beneath the ancient Well House, old voices begin to stir-whispers rising from water, stone, and memories long buried. As the village prepares for a sacred festival, secrets once forced into silence begin to surface. A forgotten child, an aging Guru, and the memory of a woman named Midorii are drawn together by a past that refuses to stay buried.
What follows will shake the village, fracture old loyalties, and awaken truths no one is ready to face. Midorii is a lyrical fantasy of memory, grief, injustice, and quiet rebellion-where the past is never gone, only waiting. And when it speaks, it will not come gently. Because what the village forgot... the water remembers.
