Children of Changelings
Chase Volanti has never lead a particularly normal life.
Born to a Mercenary, his mother, Adelaide, has done her level best to provide a safe home for her son.
That being said, it is inevitable that Chase sometimes ends up caught in the crossfire. Luckily he has been taught how to handle these... Less than savory situations with brutal efficiency. He has learned not to dwindle on that which he cannot change.
The pair move often and all over the world, going wherever his mother's work takes them, and Chase's friends are... Well, they aren't. He prefers the company of his books over others his age. As such, moving to a small town in rural Maine surrounded by trees does not upset him in the slightest. He has always loved forests in any regard.
It does upset him a bit, however, when he finds he has garnered the attention of a strange boy from the forest by the name of Blake. He does not make friends. His life is not suitable for it. Which is why it baffles him that this red eyed boy has taken an interest in him.
He ends up depending on Blake and his vast wealth of knowledge more and more, though, when his life takes an unexpected turn into the strange and unusual.
As Chase delves into his lineage and tries to make sense of the things happening to him, tensions rise, passions ignite, and assignments take entirely too long.
He just hopes he doesn't fly too close to the sun, lest it burn his wings and send him careening toward the unforgiving sea.
