Introduction: If you ever considered finding yourself unexpectedly married to a cultivator... in a world with magic inspired by productivity systems, not (just) video games...Heart of Ink & Ice weaves together themes of personal growth, community-building, and the unending adventure of everyday life. Perfect for folks interested in a palette cleanser for stories where the moral is "take insane risks to progress to insane heights of achievement" ;) Miria, an apprentice archivist and forester from the Appalachian Preserves of a post climate-crisis Earth, finds herself stranded in an alternate dimension with primitive customs, dangerous forests and strange magic. Thrust into an unexpected marriage with Lorien, a local adventurer, she must navigate her new role in a world both enchanting and full of terrors. As she applies her knowledge of Earth history, climate change science, and sustainable living, Miria begins to reshape the community, earning the respect and admiration of her new neighbors.Some of them, anyway. The rest? Well, they have ways of making their dislike known -- methods a lot more frightening than anything Miria ever faced back home....
