l'Elue (Folio Junior)

In a harsh, post-apocalyptic world where physical imperfections often lead to abandonment, young Kira is orphaned and faces a bleak future due to her twisted leg. Her society, ruled by a rigid Council, values strength and conformity, leaving little room for those deemed "useless." Yet, Kira possesses an extraordinary gift for weaving, an artistic talent that unexpectedly saves her from a grim fate and grants her a new, pivotal role within the community.

Tasked with mending and embellishing the Singer's ceremonial robe, a garment that chronicles the history of her people, Kira begins to uncover unsettling truths about her village and the powerful figures who control it. As she delves deeper into her intricate work and the secrets woven into the fabric of her world, Kira must navigate a society without mercy, where creativity is both revered and potentially manipulated. Her journey becomes a quest for understanding, challenging her to confront the true nature of her community and the power of individual expression.
