Falling Leaf

Naria, a young Druid acolyte, leaves her sheltered life and home and sets out on her vision quest. The quest is one all Druid acolytes must undertake and will decide if she's worthy to walk the Druid path.

To fail the quest is an unacceptable fate.

While away on her vision quest, the peace of South Peak is shattered when renegades destroy the village and enslave the people. Others from the village unknowingly escape the doomed village, and encounter Naria in the wilderness. They are witness when she communes with the elemental spirits for the first time and becomes a Druid.

Naria and her companions return to the village, horrified at the devastation and disappearance of their people. Now without her family, she must place her trust in her companions and travel the realm in search of answers for the fate of her people. Growing in her newfound power, she begins to understand the world, the people in it, and the part she plays. Naria discovers the strength of friendship, the joy of love, and the meaning of sacrifice.
