Lovers Between Worlds
In the context of Cymbeline Villamin's diptych novel, Lovers Between Worlds, "portals of transcendence" refers to the transformative power of emotions. These emotions serve as catalysts for the characters to move beyond their current state, thus achieving a higher self awareness and spiritual growth.
Transcendence implies a shift in perspective, allowing individuals to see themselves and the world around them in a new light.
The concept is often explored in speculative romance and fantasy where experiences can be amplified, leading to profound changes in the characters.
