Far in the forests surrounding Alku, tucked amongst the trees and stones, sits Green Cottage. There thrive gardens bursting with life and tended to with care by the only green witch left in Alku. Xayn Ellwood is the last Ellwood in the midst of the residents of the peaceful sanctuary city located in the Pacific Northwest. He spends his days with no one by his side except his raven familiar, Zamio, and a spirited corgi named Artemis. Until one day, on a trip into town, an intriguing stranger asks to share his table in the local coffee shop. Something.or someone.may have intended for these two men to meet, but something far more sinister will keep them together.

When the forests are threatened and Xayn is the only one who can protect it, his self-inflicted isolation comes to an end. Xayn will need the help of the Keeper and her companions, along with the blonde stranger with amber eyes, and the rest of his chosen family, if he wants to calm a rampaging ley line before something, or someone, gets hurt. But how? Well, he's just going to have to trust him.
