And to everyone still searching for their Shanandoah…
The story follows the journey of a young writer, who, after suffering personal loss and professional setbacks, is invited to participate in an unusual competition called "The Contest of Lost Stories." The contest, organized by a reclusive and mysterious billionaire, involves restoring forgotten tales and bringing them back to life through storytelling.
