*Beware of making wishes on starless nights, for even wishes need light to guide them.*

Zora wished for change and got more than she bargained for. When an ill-timed plea reaches the wrong ears, Zora finds herself the unwitting champion who must run the icy and magical labyrinth that only existed in her childhood stories.

Throw in a man-turned-tree and the mercurial Goblin King she keeps meeting at every dead end, and her story of survival becomes one of mystery and, somehow, romance. 

With frozen palaces, corrupt power, and a girl just doing her best, Zora must discover if the fairy tale she has entered ends happily or in tragedy. 

A wintery tale with inspiration from East of the Sun, West of the Moon, Icelandic Folklore, and Labyrinth. Not the one with the minotaur.
