Lightfall series introduces Bea and Cad, two unlikely friends who
get swept up in an epic quest to save their world from falling into
eternal darkness. Deep in the heart of the planet Irpa stands the
Salty Pig's House of Tonics & Tinctures, home of the wise Pig
Wizard and his adopted granddaughter, Bea. As keepers of the
Endless Flame, they live a quiet and peaceful life, crafting
medicines and potions for the people of their once-prosperous
world. All that changes one day when, while walking through the
woods, Bea meets Cad, a member of the Galdurians, an ancient race
thought to be long-extinct. Cad believes that if anyone can help
him find his missing people, it's the Pig Wizard. But when the two
arrive home, the Pig Wizard is nowhere to be found-all that's left

Pig Wizard's safety, Bea and Cad set out across Irpa to find him,
