Summary
To the world, Columbina is the Damselette, the ethereal voice of Fatui Entertainment, living a life of fame in high-rise penthouses. But when the cameras stop flashing, she drives a black sports car to a workshop in the Industrial District, seeking the only person who sees the girl behind the glass case.
Sandrone, the Marionette, prefers machines. Machines have manuals. Machines follow the laws of physics. People do not. As a brilliant but reclusive engineer, she measures her life in efficiency and physics. But when a deranged stalker named Zandik bypasses Columbina’s security, Sandrone is forced to recalculate her priorities.
Caught in a terrifying new reality, Sandrone makes a split-second decision that shatters her arm but saves Columbina’s life. What follows is a long road of recovery for both of them, where the lines between friendship and something statistically improbable are blurred.
