The Memory Below

Beneath the oldest library in the city lies a secret not written in any book-a hidden archive of stolen memories, sealed away to protect reality from truths too dangerous to remember.

Eloise Vale thought she knew who she was: a quiet librarian, grieving the recent death of her mother. But when she discovers a forbidden chamber beneath the stacks, her world begins to unravel. Inside the archive, glowing orbs contain erased fragments of people's lives-memories stripped away to preserve sanity, order... and lies.

When Eloise touches one orb bearing her mother's name, she unlocks a buried past-and awakens something sleeping in the dark. A name she doesn't remember begins to follow her. Faces forget her. Her own history begins to slip.

As the line between reality and memory blurs, Eloise is forced to confront a forgotten twin, a fractured identity, and an impossible choice: to bring the truth back into the light... or disappear with it forever.

The Memory Below is a haunting exploration of identity, sacrifice, and the fragile architecture of what we choose to forget.
