Almathea Bastete is the second-born child of her family. At the age of five, she was abandoned by her parents and thrown to the most desolate place in the house to keep her a secret. In this society where the birth of a second child is illegal, Almathea is supposed not to exist as she should have been killed upon her birth. Her parents do well in hiding her, however, when she turns seventeen, her parents have to make the decision to let her go for her safety and their own. Will she discover why second-born children are shunned in their society and bring back the harmony between the children born second and the rest of the world? What about the underlying danger that is lurking in the shadows, threatening to bring about the end of the world? Do they have the courage to face it all?

SPEAK

The time to depart arrived. The whole 'community' from the other side of the gate had gathered together downstairs, just outside the living room. They had all gotten back into their respective uniforms in their respective colors.

Timaeus and Leilani walked downstairs, causing everyone else to look up at them. Leilani's long blonde hair had been left to spill down her back and knees in soft waves. The bangs at the front framed her face with a small sunflower clip holding one side of her bangs up on the left side. She was holding a small travel suitcase in her hand rummaging through it as she walked down the steps with Timaeus.

"Since there are no phones there, you must use the new communication device that elder Mikael gave me. It is a good opportunity to test it. If it can be used, then it will be good for both sides of the gate."

"I understand." Timaeus bobbed his head up and down slowly.
