Publisher Description:

一个美丽山脉的山谷里,有一个被黑暗森林包围的神秘村庄。村庄里的每个人在出生时都被赋予了特定的任务,人们从未对该做什么而过一生的问题困扰过。所有的任务都是生前就安排好的,一个人的生活与其他人的生活完美地交织在一起,形成了一种和谐,自我维持的社会。在三个"向导"的指导下,他们可以看到村里每个人的命运,没有人质疑他们在社会上的任务。几世纪以来,每个人都认同自己一生的任务,仿佛是宇宙所赋予的力量,完美的平衡着一切。直到有一天一个孩子出生了。一个不说话的男孩。他的行为令人感到异常地困惑,他的任务未知。他不适合在社会中生活,而随着年龄的增长,村庄中的和谐开始神秘地消失。人们开始迷失了方向,仿佛被迷惑了,而且向导也第一次被迷惑了。不祥的声音开始从森林里发出,村庄濒临崩溃。自然地,是这个男孩的错。为了恢复平衡,村庄面临着无法想象的决定。


In the valley of a beautiful mountain, surrounded by a dark forest, there lies a mysterious village. Everyone born in this village is assigned a specific purpose at birth, and no one is ever burdened by the question of what to do with their lives. Everyone's purpose is predestined, and each life weaves perfectly in with the others, forming a harmonious, self-sustaining society. Counseled by three "guides," who can see the destiny of each person born in the village, no one ever questions their role in the community. Everyone identifies fully with their life's task, and for centuries, perfect balance and harmony prevail, as if bestowed by the forces of the universe. Until one day a child is born. A boy who does not speak. His behavior is perplexing and unusual, and his purpose is unknown. He does not fit into the community and as he grows older, the harmony in the village mysteriously begins to dissolve. People begin to lose track of their tasks as if bewitched, and for the first time, the guides are blind. Ominous sounds begin to emerge from the surrounding forest, and the village is on the brink of collapse. Surely, the boy is at fault. To restore balance, the village faces an unthinkable decision.
