Extended Summary

 

Reyes lost her best friend to a freak accident. Every day is harder than the last, and she is grief struck for years on end. On the fifth anniversary of her best friend's departure, she accidentally ends up in a forest, far from anything she knows. When she wakes up on the forest floor, she finds Ocell, a slightly cycinal but overall friendly girl. She is convinced she is either dead or drugged and taken against her will, but since ocell has a bow and arrow on her, she is careful not to let it show.

 

Slowly but surely, Reyes starts to realize that she is, in fact, in another world entirely. Together with Ocell, she travels to the palace of the realm -- not before they encounter a deadly purple mist that rips open flesh and kills without mercy -- and ask the ruler for advice on how to get Reyes back. Instead, they are met with the desperate question to search for ingredients for the only cure that could save the realm -- and likely the entire planet -- from a certain death. Reyes, not to keen to return home where all her grief dwells, accepts. They are joined by Anzeru, a guy who knows all there is to know about traveling through Erisseth.

 

Quickly they realize that it isn't as easy or safe as they thought it would be. They fight monsters, curses, and most importantly, themselves. Family secrets, death and cheating fall on their path as they stumble through the realms. Will they manage to find all ingredients of the cure, or will inner and outer distractions sway them from their path? Is earth in danger, too?

 

A story about dealing with grief, loss and finding pieces of yourself you didn't know existed. Look at it through the perspective of grieving, or enjoy a magical tale of heros and villains, riddled with mystery and beautiful places.
