Veera lives in two worlds. In the first one, she studies magic tricks at a school for wizards or runs away from mutants.

Adopting different identities and each time performing different parts in the world of LARPs, she tries to treat the experience thus gathered as a form of therapy and take advantage of it in her real life. In the meantime, she is preparing for a meeting with her father she has not seen for a long time, who abused her and her brother when they were little.
