[LGBTQ+ FANTASY NOVELLA] Arumni, a land of peace and prosperity, of happiness and magic, where people of all kinds can live long, successful lives. A land where magic is as abundant as water, flowing through everything in the realm. A land of beauty. This is not the land Eli Fawn is pulled into through the mirror in his bedroom. The Arumni that meets him is one of suffering and death and control. Ruled by an unknown being harnessing the magic of the realm for its own good. There seems to be no hope of ever defeating the almighty evil and turning the land back to the way it was. Except Eli, who most suspect is the one spoken of in an ancient prophecy foretelling the defeat of the evil controlling the realm. Pulled into another realm in order to save himself, Eli must now find a way to save everyone and figure out who he is along the way. Thanks to @chemistric for the cover
