Spring has arrived and with it, the fragrance of new flowers, warmer days, the promise of new life in the garden and. . . bad dreams?

Good dreams are swiftly disappearing from the world and the bad dreams are increasing everywhere and the answer lies within the murky waters of the Mirrored Lake.

The Mirrored Lake is the realm of the Lady Moons, the fairy queens of Sleep and Dreams. One has fallen into a deep sleep, yet her sister continues to weave all sorts of unpleasant dreams and casts them into the world. Anne and her friend Zi, the tree sprite, journey to the Sister Moons to try and set things right again. Yet, on this journey, Anne finds that some things are not always Black or White, nor are they always what they seem. . .
