The Tea Dragon Library: The steeped secret

The rain doesn't just fall in Oakhaven—it awakens the ancient. While his village hides from the "Rising Rain," Thorne is drawn to the Great Forest. One touch of the glowing Heart-Root shatters his world, revealing a hidden staircase into a realm of white stone and forgotten magic. Now, Thorne must descend into the depths of the earth. He soon learns that the "Fever" isn't a sickness—it’s a calling. The road is gone, the rain has stopped, and the journey into the Root has just begun.
