On the outskirts of Rome, four witches, three newly awakened magic users, and one muggle set out to help a friend.
Lou, an antiques dealer, bought the contents of an old house but something inside won't let him in. A powerful magical presence guards the property, and not even seasoned witches can get through.
When the untrained magic users brute-force their way past the threshold and up to the second floor, they discover the source: a mysterious, frightened object radiating ancient power, and consciousness. It doesn't know where it is. Or why it exists.
They gently convince it to come home with them. The entity slowly reveals its secrets and at its heart lies The 5 Tenets: a message not just from another world, but perhaps from the beginning of existence itself.
As their journey unfolds, the group is drawn into puzzles, alien landscapes, and concepts as old as time. Unraveling the ancient language takes them to worlds that have a mind of their own, and a bit of humor.
Join Marcus, Barb, Susan, and Mario as they navigate magic, mischief, and meaning in a tale where nothing is what it seems.
