Nineteen year-old Celestia was a nomad inhabiting Ragnarok Island.
Her carefree lifestyle is stirred up by the sudden presence by a
mysterious being with the appearance of a precocious child. The
enigmatic 'Mirage' hails Celestia and tasks her to free her
brethren from a malevolent force referred to only as "the Unknown."
The Mirage grants Celestia their sacred staff, Akhenaten, to defend
herself. Bewildered Celestia must journey to a foreign land,
Avalon, following the Mirage's whimsical demands while meeting
allies along her journey.
In the world of stories, our heroines come to their adventures
summoned by different calls. For Alice it was a white rabbit she
could not catch. For Dorothy it was a joy ride on a tornado and
flight from a wicked witch. Our heroine, Elizabeth, was
meta-narrated into her adventures. On the eve of her thirtieth
birthday, tired and worn out from life's realities, Elizabeth Hall
stumbles upon a file for a book written as a surprise for her by
her husband. When she cracks open the book sooner than intended,
its devastating contents literally shatter her world. Now on the
back of her rescuer and new friend, Circe, the foul-mouthed
unicorn, and pursued by a murderous, supernatural storm, Elizabeth
embarks on a surreal voyage to repair her unraveling universe.
Hopping from world to world, Elizabeth must find and mend the
'holes' opening up in the metaphysical mash-up of dreams and
reality threatening to consume her sanity. Telling friend from foe,
reality from fiction is her only hope for making it home or being
lost forever in a hell of her own creation.
