Emma Parker, a researcher fascinated by folklore, stumbles upon an old map leading to a hidden garden in the heart of her city, known as “Eden’s Hollow.” The garden is no ordinary place—its leaves hold secret messages written in shimmering letters. As Emma explores further, she uncovers clues guiding her to the heart of the garden, where a hidden key unlocks an ancient passage. Inside, she finds a chamber filled with journals and confessions from those who visited before her. Emma realizes that the garden has kept the secrets, hopes, and regrets of many, and anyone who enters becomes part of its memory. As she leaves, Emma understands she is now bound to keep the garden’s mysteries hidden forever.
