The Verdant Crown

Synopsis

In the vast, mystical woodland of Attles, where ancient Elven enclaves and the winged Deerians dwell beneath colossal, singing trees, a delicate balance is beginning to un-fray the magic of the singing roots. Legend claims Attles was a sanctuary from a forgotten war of gods, a place where magic warped, rendering direct harm impossible and fostering a world of strategy and invention. But now, whispers of weakening ancient magic and the stirrings of a slumbering god threaten this fragile peace. As reality-shaping relics from the Godwar resurface, the temptation for power ignites conflict. When four teens—two humans and two elves—discover an abandoned fort, they are drawn into a quest by an enigmatic old woman. Tasked with finding a relic capable of restoring the fading song of the singing trees, they find unlikely allies in two of the proud, poetic Deerians. Together, they must navigate a land filled with ancient secrets, confront the rising threat of a god's awakening, and uncover the truth hidden within the luminous Singing Roots before Attles succumbs to darkness. add Overarching Plot and Adventure Hooks The Planar Arms Race: Each race seeks to claim—or sabotage—artifacts from the planes.
