The story centers around Alice, a young woman who suffers a strange affliction causing her to flicker in and out of physical existence - randomly fading unseen into an invisible parallel world before reappearing intermittently. These unpredictable manifestations leave her feeling alone and adrift between realities. In her invisible drifting state, Alice encounters malevolent ghostly creatures and other human outcasts dwelling on society's fringes struggling to survive unseen. She crosses paths with Simon, a homeless youth battling personal tragedy, and together they speculate their trials serve deeper hidden purposes they have yet to uncover.
Other characters woven into the tale include Brother Elias, a wise priest protecting mystical secrets tied to Alice's world-crossing condition. Jeremy is a conflicted scientist bound to shady corporate experiments evoking shadowy suffering from a prisoner below. We glimpse lives fracturing across planes.
Ultimately various plotlines and personas converge through Revelations that Alice and this ragtag fellowship marked by trauma are in fact uniquely tapped to rescue stolen justice and balance as foretold by occult prophecy still guarded by Brother Elias. They represent wild cards at the axis between worlds suited to champion the vulnerable and challenge abusive authorities.
Our episodic journey through poignant magical realism accented with philosophical depth explores grand themes of moral purpose, human connection beyond surface belonging, redemption through compassion fused with courage, and societal outcasts reclaiming personal power to confront the profound unknown. We arrive at last where Alice and her allies pivot to protect life's endangered luminous edge rebirthing bold new diverse identity
