Stories are worth fighting for.

Because in an age of distraction, in a town like many others, stories are dying.

Tales, books and cinemas, have been banned, burned, or shut by the Council, replaced by the all-consuming gossip of 'the vine'.

But one lonely girl—twelve year old Ceres—is obsessed with keeping her stories alive. Every Sunday evening, she projects her meticulously crafted tales to a few friends in the woods, using a flickering light beam from her left eye.

Until her projections fade.

And her mind starts to hum.

And something blue oozes from her nose.

Then Ceres must run; abandoning her gossip-ridden mother, battling through the vine plantation, heading for a place even she couldn't have dreamt up—to save the plots that have stuffed her head to the point of eruption. All of this, with only her loyal goldfish Hemingway to guide her, and a pocketful of Blue Stonker cheese.

Enjoy :)
