The creatures of his world, from the ants in the grass to the birds in the sky, have disappeared. What's more, Cernunnos himself feels as if he is too. Something is draining him and the land of Ar Dachaidh, and he doesn't know what.
Will Cernunnos be able to save his creatures and cure himself of this ail? Or will whatever has taken root in the world tear him down too?
