Buckets & Broomsticks: A cozy fantasy where every mess can be mended with a little magic...

A cozy, slice-of-life fantasy where every mess can be mended with a little magic...

After a lifetime of adventuring, Myra is more than ready to hang up her sword and retire to a cozy cottage in the small town of Ember Valley. The place is famous for having the sweetest pies, tallest crops, and prettiest flowers in all of Altera, and she's finally here.

But when a twist of fate - and her ankle - leaves her stuck without her life savings in a town that's not quite as perfect as promised, she heads to the notice board in search of... well, anything to get her out of this mess. That's when a strange note catches her eye:

Help needed to clear witch's house - full of centuries of clutter.
Must be comfortable with mess and magic.

Perhaps swapping her sword and shield for a mop and bucket wouldn't be so bad?

But reclusive witch Pip turns out to be in a bigger mess than any bandit camp or cave troll could've prepared Myra for. As the unlikely pair work together to mend the magic that's been unravelling since Pip lost her mother, Myra soon learns that it's her softness, not her strength, that will be key to this job.
