Backstory

Nobody believed the old music box could trap souls until Cormac O'Rourke accidentally wound it backwards during his sister Lyra's thirteenth birthday, watching in horror as her laughter dissolved into ethereal notes that spiraled into the tiny brass mechanism. The antique had been their grandmother's parting gift—a "harmless" trinket that sang lullabies, not a cursed relic that collected the essence of anyone who heard its reversed melody. Now Lyra exists as a haunting refrain within the music box's depths, her voice echoing through Cormac's magical performances as he desperately searches for a way to compose her back into flesh and bone. Every song he weaves carries fragments of her trapped spirit, turning his magical girl transformation into a bittersweet ritual where he dances between two worlds—the living stage before him and the spectral realm where his sister waits.
