THE STORY

Written by Alexandra Christie

The delicate line between light and shadow is a bridge between worlds - one to be traversed with caution. The light represents life and growth; rich, golden, and generous. The shadows represent the unseen, the unimaginable, and the uncharted. When balanced together, they are the duality of nature.


Witches have known this since the beginning of time. They use magic to navigate that gossamer thin border. If a witch is lucky, fae will present themselves in various earthly forms to bless their work.


Some witches have taken to summoning fae to aid in their conjurings, rather than letting chance guide their odds. But be careful when summoning a fae; the seemingly gentlest butterfly can hold greater power than one could ever imagine.

If you are lucky, if your intentions are true, a fae will deem you worthy of its own free will. 


That is where true potential flourishes.
