Marie always thought her life was dull, or that maybe she just was. The only thing that she felt made her special was learning Morse Code with her best friend, Ashley, so that the two could have secret conversations. 

Now, much older during sophomore summer break, Ashley is off to camp and Marie is left with two choices: help renovate her family home, or get a job. 

Life at the coffee shop is enough of a distraction to get her from day to day, but everything changes when she realizes one of the coffee kettles is dripping out a message to her: FROM OUTSIDE

To her delight, Marie realizes that water is talking to her through the code she and Ashley learned when they were children! Everything is amazing until the messages become more cryptic, more threatening. Suddenly, Marie is thrust into a world of fae, elementals, and a supernatural power struggle that has existed for centuries. 

Will Marie be able to save her family and home before her time is up?

Marmalade's Love Potion

56 parts Complete

In the final days of autumn, a young princess climbs her favourite tree clutching a folded star of paper to her aching heart. Contained within its crisp lines are recountings of her dreams and darings... and a plea that she might, at last, be welcomed home. With a kiss for luck, she tosses her star to the southbound winds, and stumbles her way to a crumbling cottage in the deep woods. Years pass and the constellations spin, her pleas have gone unanswered. The princess grows, and her uncertainties are buried beneath the gentle earth of spurned hopes. It is now, when she has almost forgotten how to wish on morning stars, that an invitation of smoke and dream light arrives, carried on horseback by soldiers of a different kingdom; the Dark Moon Ball might prove her salvation. She does not yet know that love is an exquisite, wretched thing and that wishes are fickle as wisp light. She does not yet know that paths of magic have their own sense of poetry, and walking them presses footprints into the deepest sands of self, remaining even as the stars and seasons turn. She does not yet know that home is where you keep your north star.
