In a cursed land where shadows hunt the living, a forgotten map may hold the key to salvation.

Seventeen-year-old Lyra has spent her life in the quiet isolation of her dying village, tending herbs and listening to her grandmother's cryptic tales of a once-thriving kingdom called Elaris. But when she discovers a glowing map hidden inside a hollow tree, she stumbles upon a centuries-old secret-and a deadly pursuit.

The map leads to the fabled Heart of Elaris, a powerful artifact said to lift the curse that has withered the kingdom. But unlocking its power is no simple task. Accompanied by Ashen, a brooding mercenary with a hidden past, and Fynn, a charming thief with questionable motives, Lyra embarks on a treacherous journey through haunted forests, forgotten ruins, and trials that test the limits of courage and trust.

As shadows close in and betrayals cut deep, Lyra must uncover the truth about her family's connection to the curse-and make a choice that could save the land or doom it forever.

The fate of Elaris rests in her hands, but the cost of salvation may be more than she's willing to pay.
