Bess wakes from a dream she can't shake. She was serving alongside aliens called Aryllans on a Diplomatic Service Team-building the first Aryllan Embassy on Earth. But humanity remembered what the Aryllans used to be. Monsters. Predators. Then she opens her eyes in Atlanta. She's just an immigrant from Papua New Guinea helping her family import plants after school. But something is pulling her. Bess grabs a bag of magnolia seeds and tells her sister she's going on a Walkabout. "You can't do that in Atlanta!" Watch her. Following an instinct to a place near her family's house, Bess is pulled aboard a ship and comes face to face with Perr-Prince of Aryll, heir to a dying kingdom of one hundred thousand worlds. She will witness the Aryllans transform from monsters into the people they once were. She will discover her seeds share an ancient bond with Aryll's mother tree. And she will learn that love-the kind she poured into a simple bag of seeds-is the only thing that can save them all. 📚 Book 10 of the Battle of the Cubes series 🏷️ YA Sci-Fi | Aliens | Diplomacy | Transformation | Plants & Love 2026 Royal Road Spring Writathon entry @JustWriteIt 30DC and 8CC challenges
