In two days, Chanta is to go to The Factory. She wishes time would just stand still. Rebellious by nature, she hates her life, abhors the laws, restrictions, and rules, but what can she do?

The forbidden woods have lured Chanta since childhood. Within the dark forest, she has befriended the witch, Esadora, whom she often visits. A few days before her dreaded eighteenth birthday, she decides to visit Esadora to say goodbye to her.

Little does Chanta know the big secret that Esadora will reveal to her, or that on her birthday, her life will change forever.
