Summary
The Peine Disease is an enigmatic and tragic condition in which the victim's body becomes a tree due to the roots of unspoken emotions and unrequited love. Flowers blossom where their heart beats, bark curls over their skin, and their body merges with the natural world. Their feelings and memories are imprisoned inside the tree, unlike death, establishing a quiet, enduring link to the world they left behind. Slowly, cruelly, and irrevocably, the process draws the afflicted further into the embrace of nature as their humanity wanes.
