Unsaid words cling together to tell the stories of strong souls, with metaphors of trauma and similes of grief. When the extinction of the human race becomes a calculated experiment, will slumber bring comfort? When the demons that haunt you become a part of your soul, will peace ever find you?

Bob Plumose is a life coach whose own life is out of control. After teaching his clients all day about how to solve their short-term crises, Bob comes home to one he can't fix: a shoplifting daughter, a hip hop thug son, and Jo, a wife who thinks of him as added income and not much else. One day Jo lays it on the line that Bob isn't pulling his weight anymore. She demands that he attend a seminar at The Arena, an EST-clone for losers who crave empowerment. A female instructor invites Bob to a special after-party "for the elite." Feeling a strong sexual vibe, Bob stumbles into an enticement with Charisma Curry, an artist/seductress who quickly takes him to bed. But he doesn't have sex as he knows it. What Charisma does literally takes his breath away - she introduces Bob to "Breath Play," a game of denying oxygen for sexual pleasure. Frightened, guilty, but almost immediately addicted to this game, Bob suddenly has a secret life in a secret world of other players. It's not depravity that obsesses him but the discovery of being suspended between worlds, truth and lies, life and death. Bob's secret turns sinister when members of the elite of The Arena start dying off. Bob tries to blow the whistle, but the police won't listen. Bob has no one to turn to and nowhere to go - a dangerous predicament once he discovers that he's about to be the next casualty.
"Mother, he is Sita-manobhi-rama. Even if I am in the forest, or even if I collapse in the ocean, just by listening to Rama's name, I would be overflowed with undefined happiness. Mother, what do you know? I cannot tolerate if anyone blames my Rama." "My Lord, you are the greatest gift that I have got in my life. For me, this is the highest. Just being by your side gives me immense joy. This is the reason that I argued with you and came along with you to the Aranyavasam, even though you alarmed me of the unknown dangers in the forest. I cannot even imagine spending the days without you here at Ayodhya." "O! Sita Mata! how can I tell you, In Ayodhya, just because one common man questioned your purity, Rama, has ordered to leave you in the forest permanently in order to maintain the kingdom's dignity," "O Mother, O Bhumatha! If I am pure, If I am chaste, if I have remained true to Rama in mind, please take me to your abode." I have shouted these words as loud as I can and at once, amidst huge thunders and lightening, amidst fierce winds, amidst heavy rains, the floor broke, and my mother came, and took me." I, Sita Devi who has come from the earth, returned to the earth, with pride. I have fulfilled my duty as a responsible mother to Lava and Kusha.
