Prismatica: The Boy Born Without Magic
In a world where children born on festive days are believed to possess magic and a destined life of greatness, a boy quietly falls in love with a girl who barely knows he exists. She is admired by many, while he is considered ordinary and unremarkable. His parents, Mr. and Mrs. Firefly, had carefully planned for their first child to be born on Christmas Day. In their land, such a birth is expected to come with a shining sign of magic, success and a brilliant future. But when their son arrives, there is no halo, no miracle and no special gift. The Fireflies return home with their ordinary child and the costly bills from the fertility clinic. It is a dull Christmas, but the boy's story is only beginning.
