Elara has sacrificed everything to uncover the truth hidden inside her grandmother's journals, written in a lost language no one alive can read. Her final hope lies deep within Brackenfell Swamp, where an ancient relic is said to unlock forgotten words and buried histories.
The relic belongs to Murk, the towering swamp guardian bound to the land. He's willing to help Elara, but only at a cost:
Three days.
Three nights.
And a bargain that binds them together in ways neither fully understands.
What Elara wants is clear. What she begins to want from Murk threatens everything she planned to take-and leave behind.
The past may finally be within reach.
But the bargain may decide her future.
Three Nights is a short story set in the world of Elanthysia that stands on its own.
