Publisher's blurb: This is a world wrapped in deep forests, where humanity lives in the shadows of the great trees. Here, there are special plants whose roots reach deep down to the Fount of Magic. Drinking from this mysterious pool fills them with wondrous powers. Such plants are known to the dwellers of this world as Herbs, and each and every one possesses mystical powers; some that bless the lives of humanity, and some that wound and curse. Some humans borrow the magical power of the Herbs by taking the plants into their own bodies. These are they that strive to maintain balance and harmony between all who live in the great woods.
