Elysum and ordinary university student’s life is forever altered when he mysteriously awakens in an otherworldly forest realm. Now blessed with eternal youth and delicate elven grace, he sets out to unravel the enigma of his transformation. As Elysum traverses the ancient woodlands, the mystical energy of mana begins to flow through his veins, granting him extraordinary magical abilities. But no matter how far he ventures, he finds no signs of other humans in this strange new world. Refusing isolation, Elysum uses his burgeoning power to survive, mastering near god-like control over the elements. Decades pass as he builds himself a solitary cottage, filling it with magical knowledge gathered over years of intense study. Centuries go by in relative peace. Sustained by mana, Elysum remains untouched by time's grasp. Then one day, a girl wandering injured happens upon his sanctuary, his first human encounter in a millennium. With this chance for connection, Elysum is torn between his life of magical seclusion and exploring the wider realms. Will he leave behind the forest home he has known for an eon? Or turn away the first soul to cross his threshold in forever?
