In the mist-veiled kingdom of Aeldwyn, where the old magic is both feared and whispered into wishes, Y/N lives apart. Her cottage—a tangle of glowing moss, honeycomb walls, and herb bundles drying under a copper moon—sits nestled at the edge of Thornwood Hollow, close enough to the village for her healing salves and far enough to avoid the stake. She is kind. She is beautiful. And she is powerful enough to make the forest bloom or wither at a glance.
