Synopsis

Glass singers use the power of their voices to create beautiful objects. Octavia, once declared the greatest voice in three generations, has lost her talent. A powerful queen watches from afar as Octavia struggles to come to terms with her loss. The queen and her ancient living mirror understand better than anyone the cause of Octavia’s trouble. They also know the antidote for it. But Queen Anula wants to use Octavia, not save her.
