A stolen seed. A reluctant alliance. A forest on the edge of ruin.
The war between the Talan empire and the wild realm of Niadon is tearing the land apart, but neither side believes they’re to blame. Sixteen-year old Tagdyn Leslix—court disappointment—wants only one thing: to prove himself to his Talan general father. But when he fails to catch the thief of the powerful Motherseed, he finds himself far from home, trapped in the company of a defiant nymph with secrets of her own.
As the trees whisper of lost powers and the empire
tightens its grip, Tagdyn is forced to choose: loyalty to his home and people…or to the nymphs who suffer beneath them.
The forests of Niadon cry for mercy from the Talan’s steel and flames. Someone must answer.
From ashes, rise seedlings. From dead earth, rises life.
