The world has been destroyed... ...and remolded in the image of its destroyer. For thousands of years, stories had been told of the terrible Sorceress who'd given all her power to end the ancient world. But those were just stories. Now, new stars dot the sky—signs of Sorceress Jocina's power returning so she can finish the job. For A’banna, these signs mark the end of her service to the Sorceress as priestess. Commanded to sacrifice a living being in Jocina's name, she can't go through with it. A’banna flees into the jungle, but the wide world is much different than she knows. Further, she’s being hunted by Jocina’s sadistic son and her monstrous creations. Nature itself seems set against her. Bedel and Raynt, two of the Magical Affairs Commission’s elite agents and powerful essencers, might be her only hope. They've dedicated their lives to holding back the tide of Jocina's darkness, and preventing her inevitable return, but when they discover A’banna on the edge of death, all missions are postponed in an effort to protect her. Might this strange, defecting priestess hold the keys to defeating the Sorceress once and for all? Or will she cause two of the most powerful remaining essencers to meet their doom for nothing?

It is simply a diet where a person consumes foods that provide them with more fat, and very few carbs and proteins. In a Ketogenic diet, you get up to 90% of your calories in form of fats, with the rest being split between the other two macronutrients. The Ketogenic diet is aimed at causing a shift in the body’s utilization away from glucose to fats. In other words, you are causing your body to burn fats rather than what it is normally used to – sugars. During this process, your liver produces substances known as ketone bodies.The recipes that have been provided in this book are ketogenic diet friendly.

Children learn best through repetition and stories they can relate to. The intent of this book is to create relatable situations and "character friends" for your child. Mental health issues can be overwhelming and too often the society we live in shames those whom it affects. As a father, and as a professional in the field of mental health, it is my goal to help children learn coping skills. Last year on a family fishing trip I witnessed my nephew have a severe panic attack, and by teaching him a box breathing technique he was able to settle down. After that experience, I jumped online to see what resources were available for children with anxiety and I wasn't impressed with what I found. As a father, my favorite moments to teach are through bedtime stories and that is what I have created here. Through this story, your child will be introduced to a young child by the name of Jack who is faced with true to life situations that cause him to feel anxiety. In the introduction a young boy has feelings of his heart beating like a drum, breathing really fast, and then starting to cry. He doesn't understand why it is happening, and his parents step in to help him recognize what he is feeling anxiety. As the book progresses the child is exposed to real-life situations that cause him anxiety and then taught a well established and proven deep breathing exercise to help ground him. At the end of the book, the young boy recognizes anxiety in a classmate and helps her to learn the same coping skills he has been taught, and then they become friends through their common bond.
