Riley Woodward has been unsuccessfully working as a customer success associate in a soulless tech company for years to make ends meet. He didn't like the job--hell, he didn't like much except relaxing with his best friend Abel and playing video games. His life was going nowhere fast until one day, on a lunch break, a strange tome came into his possession.

It follows him, calls to him until one day it opens his eyes to the very nature of the world itself. And what was more, he seemed to be bound to a strict timeline to complete a very particular task--grow a tree by the next full moon. But not everyone will agree with his journey, and enemies hunt him through the forests he seeds.

Can he complete the ritual? What will happen if he does? And what are the consequences of this sudden change to his reality?
