In the Achromatic World, forgotten desires, ambitions, and dreams from our own reality take shape and walk the earth. It is a realm without color, composed solely of light and shadow, where fractured figures inhabit ruined stone temples flooded with sunlight. Within one of these temples lives Torre, a female presence akin to a dark virgin cast in bronze. She yearns for materials with which to complete her colorless paintings. Her apprentice, Ave, offers to journey to the river in search of them, now that the rain has ceased. Thus, Ave sets out on the pilgrimage.
