Following the events of the story, "Enchantyon: Knight of the Holy Faun", both Lalauri Imafenduwell and Keridwen of Khar Vell began making their way back through the Greater Wilderness to the realm that Lalauri called home: the Free Border Dominion known as, Aureate. The Gilded State.

Several hundred lifetimes ago, there was a phrase that history would later on quote Lalauri as having said several dozen times throughout Enchantyon’s history. Even in the modern era of the Arcane Age, she found herself saying it in the aftermath of her latest adventure:

“Give me a monster, and I will hack it to pieces. Show me villainy, and I will serve it with righteous annihilation.”

But instead, the Holy Faun saw fit to give her a child.

Upon their arrival in Aureate, Lalauri and Keridwen will have to face the threats and challenges that had been looming in the background while Lalauri was away. Threats that were only just barely fended off by the staff of Lalauri’s home, Imafenduwell Hall.

All the while, the warrior elf maiden and the lonely human orphan must find a way to settle in together, and in doing so are forced to come to grips with their new reality of guardian and child.
