   Summary

   Arven and Juliana’s 10-year Uva Academy class reunion is just a week away. She begs him for a favor: Pretend to be her boyfriend for the night. In return, he asks her to join him on a trip around Paldea that will relive the glory days of their youth. Along the way, they’ll unravel long-repressed feelings, their hangups about getting older, and an earth-shattering mystery as big as Paldea itself.

   Title from the incredible Hozier song by the same name.
