Takopi's Original Sin tells the dark story of the risks of change
On a planet where depressing demeanors and displeased dispositions are the norm, it's easy for anyone to be used to going through their everyday life without so much of a smile or a light laugh. After all, there's not much to be happy about when life feels dark and gray. However, Takopi, an outsider, seeks to change the status quo of this gloomy planet by spreading his joy for all to see. If only he knew that he not only signed up for a daunting task but also dived first into a messy situation that may end up hurting him more than he ever thought.
How will Takopi resolve the issue of sadness that has permeated the planet? Who will he meet that can assist him? Are there others like him? All these questions and more will be answered soon enough.
