In the quaint village of Eldergrove, where the sun seems to shine just a little brighter and dreams come alive in the whispering winds, young Lila discovers a peculiar object buried in the woods—a shimmering, intricately carved artifact known as the Geewip. This mysterious relic grants her the ability to see into the hearts of those around her, revealing their hidden desires, fears, and untold stories. As Lila navigates her newfound power, she embarks on a journey to connect with her neighbors in ways she never thought possible. From the reclusive widow longing for adventure to the ambitious baker struggling to keep her family tradition alive, each encounter teaches Lila that true magic lies not just in the extraordinary, but in the everyday connections we forge.
