In the hushed solitude of Faraday Institute, brilliant physicist Adeline Cross pushes the boundaries of quantum entanglement. Her journals, filled with complex equations and intimate reflections, chronicle a relentless pursuit of knowledge and a descent into an unsettling isolation. But Adeline's groundbreaking experiment yields a result far beyond expectation: contact not with entangled particles, but with echoes of herself across the multiverse.
Suddenly, Adeline converses with versions of herself who've made different choices, lived alternate lives. The thrill of discovery quickly gives way to unease as discrepancies emerge. One Adeline remembers a childhood she never had. Another paints a disturbing picture of Timothy, Adeline's closest colleague, as a figure shrouded in darkness. As the lines between realities blur, the laboratory becomes a claustrophobic reflection of Adeline's fracturing mind. Her once-meticulous journals devolve into fragmented pronouncements, each entry a desperate grasp at a reality slipping away.
Meanwhile, Timothy, grounded in his pragmatic skepticism, witnesses Adeline's unsettling transformation. His concern escalates as he uncovers inconsistencies within her research, hinting at manipulation from a source beyond his comprehension. Whispers of the reclusive physicist Ellis Vance, whose theories haunt the fringes of Adeline's work, begin to take on a sinister significance. Could he hold the key to the unraveling of Adeline's world?
As the walls between universes crumble, a chilling truth emerges: one of Adeline's alternate selves, hardened by the trials of her own reality, seeks dominance, viewing the others as expendable copies. The ensuing battle is not fought in the physical world but within the fractured landscape of Adeline's mind. With Timothy as her anchor, Adeline must confront this darker reflection of herself, a chilling embodiment of her own suppressed desires and fears.
In a desperate gamble, Adeline must sever the interdimensional connection before her own identity is completely consumed. But the cost may be higher than she can imagine. Will she succeed in reclaiming her reality, or will she become another echo lost in the vast expanse of the multiverse?
