But when she receives an unexpected letter informing her that the house is hers, Ayan sees a chance for a fresh start in the small, rural town where she spent childhood summers.However, her life takes a turn when she encounters a winged frog鈥攐ne that defies all logic, leaving her questioning her reality. Ayan brushes it off as a hallucination from tapering off her antidepressants, but the bizarre creature persists, leading her into the wild and mystical forest where nothing is as it seems.After an accident by the river, Ayan is inexplicably transported to another world鈥攐ne where magic is real, witches wield incredible power, and fae creatures threaten the very fabric of existence. In this strange realm, Ayan meets Enzi, a brooding witch with dark eyes, and Meia, an energetic witch with a dangerous secret. They claim Ayan is no ordinary human but a witch herself, suppressed and unaware of her own powers.Trapped in a world where the line between myth and reality blurs, Ayan must decide whether to help Enzi and Meia uncover the truth behind a growing darkness in the forest, or if she should return to her life, which seems more mundane and broken than ever. With every step she takes deeper into the realm, Ayan uncovers hidden truths about herself, her family鈥檚 legacy, and the ancient war between witches and fae.The stakes grow higher as Ayan鈥檚 powers begin to awaken, and she faces the terrifying reality that the world she left behind may be on the brink of destruction. With Enzi鈥檚 cryptic guidance and Meia鈥檚 unwavering optimism, Ayan must confront her fears, embrace the magic within her, and decide where she truly belongs before the darkness consumes everything she knows.
