A deeply atmospheric, slow-burn romance set in the heart of Japan with a strong whiff of neurodivergence.

For fans of cultural immersion, emotional depth, and opposites-attract romance.

Everywhere familiar. Nowhere truly at home.

Akin to a sea fairy, Elyna has dwelt along many shores: from the Norwegian fjords to the unforgiving waters of Cornwall, with many stopovers along the way. At twenty-two, she is fluent in tongues and farewells alike, but has yet to explore the country she’s dreamt about from childhood. Japan.
When the opportunity arises to teach at Sakura Seishin High School, a school built on tradition and kendō, the pull of the current is too strong to resist.

Here dwells Sano Kazuki, her supervisor. A sensei who honours silence and upholds tradition. Whose reputation means just as much as guiding students to become a greater version of themselves.
Elyna’s presence comes like the tide into his life; unstoppable and merrily chaotic. In return, Kazuki provides an anchor.

On paper, it’s impossible. In reality, it’s inevitable.

In a country where public shame destroys careers, feelings are dangerous.
Tradition demands one path. Their hearts, like wayward blossoms, demand another.
Where does true honour lie?
