Story Meet Lorry, a shy yet curious young girl who lives alone with Helina in a small cabin located... well, Lorry doesn't know exactly. In fact--besides some occasional glances through the window in her bedroom, peering into an opaque snowstorm--Lorry has no idea what the world even looks like. Her entire life, for as long as she can remember, has been this cabin. Helina say's it's not safe outside and to never leave--but she doesn't say why. All exiting doors are always securely locked; never once has Lorry seen one open. For days, weeks, months and maybe even for years, both girls live day-to-day repeating the same activities: eating the same meals, enjoying the same books, living their own small solitary version of groundhog day --that both of them are aware of. It's as if time were standing still... or perhaps it never existed in the first place? Even the hands from the clocks are oddly missing, and the calendar only shows one month. But what does it matter, since Lorry has never understood the meaning of time anyway? If it weren't for a mysterious, reoccurring nightmare plaguing her dreams every night then perhaps this life would be easy to accept, but this dream leads Lorry to question her existence and her curiosity drives her to understand the world beyond the cabin. It isn't until a strange portrait appears in the cabin one day, that Lorry finally has the opportunity to learn more--and what she discovers will unravel everything about the woman she lives with and the world she's trapped in...
