In the ancient world of Aligaea, Laurel serves the Anima’s army, wielding plant magic, potions and powerful artifacts in the ongoing Task to restore ecological balance. Across centuries, she witnesses empires rise and fall, magical forces evolve, and the fragile order of the natural world begins to collapse. As a master of botanical magic, she crafts deadly charms, invisibility tinctures, and Birch Skin armor --- magical tools shaped by the pressures of war. But as the Imperium rises --- the greatest threat Aligaea has ever faced --- Laurel begins to question the ethics of everything to which she has devoted her life. If saving the world requires endless war, sacrifice and manipulation, is it a mission worth completing? Is the Task truly restoring balance?
