Synopsis: The town of Novak is filled with fae, magic, and secrets. Two teens must learn to fight through hardships like any other high schooler, while also navigating the strict laws of their society and culture. Luckily they have each others backs no matter what.

note: anyone under the age of 18 and above, will not be hired, this series deals with disability representation of those on the Autism spectrum, as well as varying depictions of mental health struggles such as depression, anxiety, PTSD, etc. As well as discussions of emotional manipulation, Toxicity within a family unit, and other serious topics. While this series does have moments of fun and light heartedness, it is a coming of age fantasy & family drama that will, as the series goes forward, get more and more serious. Meaning, you must have A degree of maturity in order to be apart of this series.
Creator note 2: I have gotten quite a few questions about Accents. To explain, the only characters who really need accents are the adults and Gwyther Roth-Stone. The "accents" are only there as a point of reference for where these characters come from, I.e Callum is Romanian but born in a town set in the mortal world. So while he may have A touch of the accent, his would be very slight, in comparison to say, Malachi Faust. Malachi, who is Romanian, has a Romanian accent, because he was born And raised in the fey homelands. This applies to all teens except for again as follows: Gwyther. As well as Levi and Elian who were children during the end of the war in Tir Na Noc.
Creator note 3: this project does not use discord to communicate! Emails (gmail preferred) or social media DMs only! Thank you.
creator note 4: For future casting: Due to the amount of characters there are, I may need voice actors to be double or tripple casted for this project. If that is impossible for you to do, for whatever reason, please audition for one character only in this case.
Creator note 5: IMPORTANT! this project is completely ZERO BUDGET. its an Independent project, it is non Union work, anyone who auditions for future castings must be ok with not being financially compensated for their services.

In fact she's completely and utterly toxic, she tends to show favoritism towards Hazel, Leroy's sister, and often times gaslight's and is incredibly rude to Leroy, making him feel as if he is responsible for coping an attitude at the most basic of questions.
I can't pick you up today, alright? You're old enough to walk home by yourself, Leroy. Now, I have errands to run. *annoyed*
i haven't done anything! It's that disrespectful brat! he's constantly a trouble maker, he's manipulative and ungrateful! Always a poor pity me, boo hoo! *complaining* grow up for once!

*uses his powers of water manipulation to attack an unknown enemy*
Leroy, get JACOB out of here!

*cheerful* hey, my name's Cirian! You're Leroy right?
*Calm* do you see these tangles? These are the tapestries of fate! Woven together so intricately... and it's my job to keep billions and billions of fey on the path of their destined fate.
