The Story

In a world fraught with chaos, an insulated village in the northern mountains is the last remaining untouched by the maelstrom of human conflict. When the lights of the north unexpectedly vanish, it falls to a young girl of the Highlands to stop the approaching evil intent on destroying everything she’s ever known. Along the way, ancient secrets of the past are unveiled that might change the world for good. Can they restore the lights of the north and stop the evil on the horizon before its too late?
