Synopsis

All Elves, blessed by nature’s gift, once wielded miracles akin to magic, their power granted by the World-Tree. But during the Great War 40 years ago, this sacred tree was burnt to ash, and with its fall, the elves were stripped of their magic power. Without it they stood no chance against the advance of human technology, losing the war. Now elves endure oppression of all kinds across the lands.

In Lun’roco, a mining town where elves are enslaved to harvest salt, our hero from another world is reborn as the half-elf Isayah. With his amnesiac spirit companion, Isha, at his side, he must endure the hardship of growing up in a city that scorns him for both his human and elven blood. Yet if he wishes to one day escape with his mother, he needs to find allies among the downtrodden and earn the trust of the very elves who spurn him. Can he rise to become the saviour of elven-kind and restore magic to a world that has long since lost it?
