Your Regrets Mean Nothing To Me

Elysia Drayton was the most hated woman of the 22nd century. Branded as pure evil, she was accused of everything from abandoning her brother to betraying her adoptive family. By sixteen, the rumors painted her as a monster who'd pushed her younger sister down the stairs, leaving her in a vegetative state. The world condemned her without question.The stories only got darker. Tales of theft, bullying, and selling herself to strangers swirled across every media platform, turning Elysia into a pariah. But when memory-extraction technology was finally released, the truth began to surface. Bit by bit, the real story emerged, and those who had once demonized her realized the terrible mistake they'd made.Now, filled with regret, her brother Torin kept vigil at her hospital bed, and even Fenwick, her most vocal critic, hurt himself out of remorse. But just as the world started to seek her forgiveness, the creator of the memory technology dropped one final bombshell: Elysia was already gone.
