About

Maris never knew her parents. Raised in an orphanage, she grew up believing she had been abandoned by the world. Life offered little comfort, and as the years passed, she struggled to find a reason to keep moving forward. Everything changed when she met a group of children who became the family she never had. Among them was a mute and deaf girl whose kindness and strength gave Maris something she had never known before: hope. Through friendship, laughter, and shared dreams, Maris slowly discovered meaning in a life she once wanted to leave behind. But their happiness was short-lived. One by one, her friends became victims of a human trafficking network that preyed upon the vulnerable. Some disappeared without a trace. Others met tragic fates. The people who were supposed to protect them looked away, and the world moved on as if they had never existed. Maris did not. Years later, carrying the memories of those she lost, she steps into a cruel world determined to uncover the truth. What begins as a search for the criminals responsible soon becomes something greater. Along her journey, Maris encounters victims of injustice from every walk of life and makes a promise to herself: no one will be abandoned the way her friends were. Driven by grief, guided by love, and fueled by an unbreakable sense of justice, Maris fights not only for revenge but for those who no longer have a voice. Because while the world may have forgotten them, she never will.
