With a life of retail getting him down, Cormac had long looked forward to his vacation of spending all week hiking in the woods.

Accidentally saving a dryad and getting dragged into hidden world of magic brought that to an abrupt end.

Ixia the dryad had been thrown into a long slumber, awoken by a kind man that she formed a fast bond with. She would need all the help she could get to reclaim her forest from sinister forces that had ruled her forest for ages in her absence.

As both work together, they will find neither world is what they had thought. A modern world with magic lurking at the edges, and a hidden world of magic stretching the limits of "hidden".

A dryad begins the slow path towards understanding the world she has awoken to as she tries to reclaim her forest, and a guardian wishes he had more than a shovel to help with all that.
