Voices of the Future

In a world where a Risky life speeds up time, Ordina walks the dark blue footprints of Routine to slow time down. 

Ordina’s younger sister, Chancy, is dying, and the cure only grows in the forest outside their village. Chancy longs to dance in the spring festival, but her illness—and Ordina’s worries—prevent her from practicing.

Ordina knows if she stays safely in a Routine life, she can prolong her time with her sister, but if they stray from the footprints of Routine and take this Risk, there is a chance of healing her—but time will speed up and Chancy might die before they get the cure.
