O' Come away with me to the land of the fay, where the forest comes alive with pixie game play. But not all is as it seems as a collection of friends, enemies and strangers must work together to discover the truth and save their forest home.
"There is a wood like no other, where the trees grow as tall as buildings and thick enough to impede ground travel. Going around could easily take hours by foot. The long rope-like tendrils stripe the trees from root to leaf and back again as if to stop them from toppling. These trees, magnificent as they were are only part of the beautiful scenery of the forest. the fallen leaves of last autumn and the bright foliage of the spring littered the gay forest floor and the bubbling brook giggled as it slid across the silken stones, smoothed from centuries of rainfall. The wind tossed up the soothing scent of lilacs and opium blossoms as it passed the evening birds in their cheerful gossip."
