Darnell Autumnward, the shopkeeper of Autumnward's Teas and tinctures.

Days were simple: filled with warmth and his own little garden. Yet lonely. After his mother left him behind, not a single letter has arrived to his address. Not a word of his mother. Until he receives a package. An inheritance of a book, which will change his life.

Kaius lives in that book - he is the book - and the reader of it possesses the might to create anything.

But someone else wants it.
