Echo & Narcissus

Echo talks too much. Born unremarkable among beautiful sisters, she discovered that words could make people pay attention—and she's been filling every silence since, desperate to matter. When Zeus asks her to distract his jealous wife Hera with gossip, Echo leaps at the chance. What could go wrong? Narcissus is so beautiful that everyone who sees him falls instantly in love. But to him, their desire feels like blindness—they see his face, never him. So he's built walls of ice around his heart, rejecting every suitor, until his soul has faded to a shadow that hardly knows its own name. When these two wounded people meet, it should be a disaster. And it is. But something unexpected happens in the aftermath—something that transforms a story about vanity and obsession into something stranger and more hopeful: a meditation on what it really means to listen, to love, and to let go.
