"Christmas! Christmas! For the Lord's birth run!" The north is dark. The sun cannot rise. Holidays never come. Not while tyrant Queen Brumal keeps it so, hoarding power over the winds. Air currents answer to those who can ride them fastest. And the speed of the witch's flying sleigh has never been challenged. Until now. One fateful December night, Kristopher Clark tumbles into the wintry realm where tundra beasts prance, a burning Star roves unchecked, and the cheery smallfolk people face extinction under Brumal's eternal eve.

Ashiy, a young redtail fox, has been raised in the remote smuggler’s den of Whim’s Haven. Hidden at the heart of a troll-infested forest, its population is full of ruffian raccoons, brigand bears, and snarl-toothed wolves. Ashiy dreams of seeing the wider world beyond its borders, but his mysterious elven godmother is determined to keep him close by her side. He knows she’s keeping secrets—about who she really is, and the past which left him an orphan.

In the aftermath of the human invasion, agents on both sides conspire as sentiments for conflict spur through Altharia. Amid it all, Ashiy the fox has been named a hero. Much to his discomfort, the title interests both lords and ambassadors. Inexperienced with the powers at play and lacking a trustworthy mentor, Ashiy grapples with some of the most important decisions of his life. Which invitations from Altharia's nobles should he accept? Which should he flee?
