In the quiet of their studio apartment, a man stands before the mirror, his gaze fixed on his own reflection - which isn't quite his own. His hands hover over the surface, where a faint glow begins to emanate, casting a warm light on the walls. The woman he married, asleep on the sofa, is the source of his most profound contemplation. She is his tether to the human world, a reflection unlike any other, and he is beginning to feel something he hasn't felt in eons.
