Synopsis

Cliona has always loved the wrong things: sea serpents, dragons, and daring to be different. Her dwarven clan’s rigid beliefs have made her feel like an outcast all her life. But when a family wedding turns sour, she dares to speak her wild-hearted truth, shattering the last hold her clan has over her. Between grief and relief, she finds peace tending seaweed and mending nets on a quiet kelp farm by the shore. For the first time, her life feels like her own. However, when word spreads that her clan is hunting a dragon for stealing their ancestral gem, she can’t help but try to stop them, only to learn they’ve taken the dragon’s valuable egg in retaliation.Determined to save the innocent creature, she snatches the egg and flees with a band of good-hearted smugglers. With a fragile life in her hands, she seeks aid from a reclusive, and cranky, elven ranger rumored to understand such dangerous beasts. Because honestly, what in the blazes will she do if the thing hatches? Discover the world of Larune where slice-of-life tales and furry (or scaly) companions offer friendship and comfort to the weary soul. For those who enjoy self-discovery, reflective moments, and low-stakes adventure in a charming, rustic setting. Take Note: Though this stand-alone tale can be enjoyed by any age, it’s intended for grown-ups in need of a gentle escape. Mention of dysfunctional family dynamics.
