Suddenly his world is turned upside down and he finds himself living in the city. Everything is loud and fast. Ren’s head is so full from his new surroundings that there’s no room left for magic or wild.
The city is all Ava has ever known. She thrives in an environment with constant change and people moving. There is always something to do and she is never lonely because she always has someone to share it with.
