Tzipi's Garden
Toma Marisco was ordinary young man with ordinary dreams. He had a bit of his missing father's itch for adventure, but not enough to keep him from leading a simple life in his sleepy hometown. However, when his hometown becomes the flashpoint of a new war, life becomes anything but simple. Caught up with a runaway princess, he must avoid the pursuing enemy while finding a way to avenge what he has lost. Little does he realize that everything he knows amounts to little more than pieces on a gameboard guided by the hand of the woman who secretly rules the world from above.
