Welcome to the new adventure.
What follows is an invitation into the world of Wintertide.

This brief introduction offers a glimpse into the Sylvan Realm, its Keepers, and the story they carry. It is meant to spark the imagination and set the stage for the journey ahead—one shaped by story, memory, and the choices that bind them together.
Step into the Sylvan Realm…
Imagine a forest—tall trees overhead, branches woven together, moss soft beneath your feet. Now imagine you are only six inches tall. A fern feels like a forest. A daffodil towers above you. Your job is to care for these wild things, because you are a Sylvan Sprite.

Long ago, the Maker created the Sylvan Realm—the living world of leaf and limb—and placed the Sprites in the wild places as Keepers. There are four tribes, one for each season, each tending the growing things of their time: moss and ferns, roots and branches, flowers, seeds, and leaves.

Deep within the forest lies a hidden clearing—the Wildfern Glade. The air here feels different. Quiet. Alive. This is where the Sprites gather each year for Wintertide, a three-day festival beginning at the winter solstice and ending with a grand celebration of Christmas.

But there is another realm.

Not rooted in the land, yet not separate from it—the Seasonal Realm, where four siblings rule the seasons: Spring Splendor, Radiant Summer, Merciful Autumn, and Lady Winter. For years beyond counting, they lived in rhythm, each taking their turn.

Until one year, something went wrong.

Lady Winter turned toward her own path, ignoring what her choices would bring.

And this is where our story begins to turn.

This year at Wintertide, the truth will be revealed.

​​And it will shake everything.
