Welcome to Sunshine Acres: the home of a reclusive sorceress, her mischievous apprentice, and a shape-shifting beast.

Robin, a jaded doctor, finds himself at this peculiar sanctuary while on a quest to find his brother, Otto. Running out of money and desperate, he agrees to serve as the cook and housekeeper in return for a place to stay.

Amidst the enchantment and dangers of Sunshine Acres, Robin must confront hidden dangers and unravel the sorceress's secrets. Can he mend her shattered heart and survive the perils that threaten the Witch of the Red Crows?

(Loosely inspired by Howl's Moving Castle (both the movie and the book) with a Wild West, gender-bent twist.)

-------------------------------

"I'm looking for a sorceress."
"HA!" The old woman laughed, eyes gleaming with amusement.
"Might as well admit you're lookin' for trouble, boy."

I felt the pressure build up in my throat, this uncomfortable sensation of holding back one's tears followed almost instantly after.
