"It is a delicous thing to write, to be no longer yourself but to move in an entire universe of your own creation."

Gustave Flaubert

About Sophie Haeder

Born in 1992, Sophie Haeder lives in the picturesque countryside of Bavaria, Germany, where she embraces her nerdy nature alongside her roles as a wife and a mother of a little girl.

With a lifelong passion for fantasy, encompassing everything from fairies to witches to trolls, she has found solace in imaginative play since childhood. Playing Dungeons & Dragons with her favourite group of nerds brings her immense joy.

This love of storytelling eventually led her to writing, a natural progression from her professional career as a marketing manager.

She loves fantasy and art, and her writing combines all of her interests into one. That’s why she did all the artwork for this book herself, including the cover, the map, and every other illustration in this book.
