Rúna, born of the stars, is the chosen one destined to restore the Ninth Realm, the lost home of the Dökkálfar. Shunned by her clan due to the shame her father left behind when he abandoned her pregnant mother, Rúna has grown accustomed to isolation in the depths of Myrkviðr Forest. She spends her days nurturing the land with her magic, maintaining balance by keeping the Dökkálfar's creatures at bay. But everything changes when she encounters one of these creatures, and the real danger emerges-not from it, but from the hidden magic within herself, a power she never knew she possessed, inherited from her mysterious father. Joined by this creature, Rúna embarks on a journey through the forest to seek the guidance of a seeress, unravel the secrets of her magic, and, along the way, discover her true purpose. As she struggles to save both the world and the Ninth Realm, Rúna also searches for her father and unexpectedly finds love. Follow Rúna in this coming-of-age story where nothing is as it seems, and the world of gods and monsters is far more complex than anyone imagined. This series is a tale of adventure, love, spice, friendship, freedom, and self-discovery, built around the beloved "chosen one" and "fated mates" tropes.
