In January 2314, Rowena Savalas – a curator of the vast archive
of the twenty-first century’s primitive internet – stumbles
upon a story posted in the summer of 2024. She’s quickly drawn
into the mystery of the text: Is it autobiography, fantasy or
fraud? What’s the significance of the recurring number 381? In
the story, the protagonist Fairly walks the Horned Road – a quest
undertaken by youngsters in her village when they come of age. She
is followed by the “breathing man,” a looming presence, dogging
her heels every step of the way. Everything she was taught about
her world is overturned. Following Fairly’s quest, Rowena comes
to question her own choices, and a predictable life of curation
becomes one of exploration, adventure and love. As both women’s
stories draw to a close, she realises it doesn’t matter whether
the story is true or not: as with the quest itself, it’s the
journey that matters.
