Echoes of the Past

Estaria’s life in Appledale is a simple, sunlit thing — the orchards, his family, the warm routine of a baker’s apprentice who has never wanted for more. Then he reads a single word he cannot place and cannot forget: Streacresh. The search for its meaning will cost him the only world he has ever known, and draw him deep into the forests of western Gaiadra, where a long-buried truth is waiting. But to reach it, Estaria must first face the echoes of his own past.
