In the realm of Orlov, amidst the desolate darkness of the Kingdom of Myrkar, an ordinary elf, Brenn Skulda, leads a mundane existence. That is until an encounter with a mysterious creature catalyzes her true destiny. Whisked away by the enigmatic Prince Runier to the Light Kingdom of Lysafar, she discovers her Greater Gifts of magic and her destiny as one of the revered Norns-the powerful weavers of time.

However, the tranquility of Lysafar becomes threatened by the Dark Kingdom’s Malevolent King, who seeks to dominate this realm and the others tied to the mystical Tree of Askari. With the future hanging in the balance, Brenn and her friends must race against the delicate nature of time to locate the other two Norns before they fall prey to the King’s dark devices.

Ultimately, Brenn must decide if she can embrace her wyrd, her fate, and let the light in, or if the encroaching shadows will consume it all.
