Nova (Anodyne)

==Summary==
Nova is a Nano Cleaner, a being created by The Center, the entity that governs New Theland, to protect it from Nano Dust, an insidious threat that invades the bodies of New Theland's inhabitants, corrupting their thoughts and magnifying their imperfections. Nova was gifted with the ability to shrink inside those people's minds to get rid of the Nano Dust plaguing them.
However, upon shrinking into a mysterious fruit, Nova finds Dustbound Village, a place where its inhabitants coexist with the Dust surrounding them, accepting their mortality and their imperfections instead of sacrificing their free will to The Center. While she initially rejects their teachings, as she learns more of the world surrounding her Nova turns against The Center, rescuing their next Nano Cleaner, Zora, and taking her with herself while she leaves New Theland to have a normal life.
