The characters

As outsiders commandeer the island, Stephen learns the town is about to be overcome by a centuries-long battle between intergalactic Magical forces. One that’s been raging unseen by all who live there.
The Prince has died, and to protect his legacy, his powers have been hidden away in an unlikely town on earth. Despite intergalactic powers attempting to shroud this truth in shadow, Stephen and his sister, Vi, are pulled into its knowledge only having just learnt that Magic even exists. Little do they know that a Magical battle is about to escalate right in front of them.
To make matters more confusing, Stephen learns that his wife, who left one night without a word, is on the island in town. Why did she leave and how had she hidden for this long? Why is she acting so strange? How could she abandon him and their daughter?
Meanwhile, in the distance, the pine forests stand as witness, knowingly but quietly – sentinels overseeing ancient histories of Magic, darkness, and duty. They’re preparing for an ancient evil to descend from above and threaten everything they have come to protect.
It is time the Prince’s magic was awakened.
