Ivy

Intro The land of Ladonia is a place whispered about in bedtime stories and carved into the songs of traveling bards. Here, the mythical races dwell—elves with their ageless beauty, dragons that rule the skies with fire and shadow, orcs whose strength shakes the very mountains, and countless beings that fall somewhere in-between. Each kingdom holds its own mysteries, each forest hums with ancient magic, and each river hides tales older than the stars. From the tranquil groves of the Earth Elves comes Ivy, a young elf with eyes the color of moss and hair like tangled vines kissed by sunlight. Like her kin, she carries the gift of communion with nature. Flowers bloom at her fingertips, roots shift to her command, and even the wildest of creatures pause to listen when she speaks. Ivy’s heart is gentle, overflowing with kindness, yet her innocence sometimes borders on dangerous naïveté. She trusts too easily, forgives too quickly, and believes there is goodness even in the darkest of shadows. But Ivy has always been restless. While her people are content to live in harmony with their beloved forests, she feels the pull of something greater—an itch in her spirit that no amount of blooming gardens or singing birds can soothe. Beyond the boundary of her homeland lies the unknown: towering cities, dangerous roads, ancient ruins, and creatures her elders only ever warned her about. Some call it recklessness. Others call it fate. Her journey is only just beginning. Whether her curiosity will be her undoing—or the very key to her destiny—remains unwritten. But one thing is certain: Ladonia will never be the same once Ivy steps beyond the trees.
