Part 5/8:
When Tally finally discovers the truth about the orchids, the initial excitement she felt about the surgery dissipates. A revelation hits her—these flowers are toxic and a part of a grand deception intended to control the population through artificial beauty and apathy. She finds herself in a community that respects nature and values human connection over enhanced appearances. Layers of the narrative peel away as Tally grows increasingly conflicted, torn between loyalty to her friends and the oppressive norms of the City.
