"This stain, it festers like a wound. If not taken care of, it will spread, grow infectious."Deep within the stone walls of Kanzia's castle, a ghost wakes from death. Elias Blackwood was supposed to be dead. This is something he has known since his heart stopped at ten, something he is reminded of in each shuddering breath taken since that day. He's fought since then to claw his way back into the world of the living, one herb mixture at a time. So far, it hasn't been going well. But all of that changes when the alluring, twisting world of the faerie kingdom opens its doors to him. Now, there's a real chance for a proper cure, one more filling than the hesitant spell that's kept him alive thus far. Will Elridge holds the answers he's so desperately searched for? Or will he just replace one curse with another? Is this an escape or simply a new prison? There's only one way to find out. From a young age, Oleander knew they wanted to be an author. They spend their youth scribbling stories into notebook pages, filled middle school journals with comic ideas, submitted short stories to writing competitions in high school. His first story was completed at 15, his second at 16. Fen and Fern is a passion project of many years, many hands, and many supporters. This is the culmination of passion, morbid curiosity, and a perhaps slightly unhealthy addiction to bones. North continues to create more entries into the realm of the fae, one page at a time.
