Dryad: Pieces of a Broken World (Volume 1)

Have you ever wondered what a tree might say if only it could speak? Dryad is the epic adventure of the spirit of a tree—The Elder Tree, Nia. Her quest to save her forest from over-logging takes her to many strange and beautiful places. With Saito—a spy and assassin—as her guide Nia makes her way across the human world in the hope of convincing the emperor of Fujiwa to put a stop to deforestation once and for all. But the journey won’t be easy. Nia and her companions must overcome many obstacles along the way including goblins and human ignorance and bigotry. Yet the story is not only about Nia. Each of her companions experience life changing transformations as a direct result of being exposed to Nia and her inner light. In the end no one is the same as when the story began. Such is life. Dryad is a story about deep passions and philosophy. That being said here is a quote from Dryad’s younger cousin. “Unless someone like you cares a whole awful lot, nothing’s going to get better. It’s not.” —Dr. Seuss, The Lorax
