Synapsis:

Leon was once the quiet backbone of a celebrated hero’s party—kept close for his talent, but never truly respected for it. When politics and pride finally won out, he was cast aside and left to make his own way. Gifted with an uncanny craft, Leon can brew astonishingly powerful potions from nearly any ingredient, turning weeds, monster parts, and kitchen scraps into miracles—so long as he’s given the time to prepare them properly. Seeking a life that’s his by choice rather than necessity, he retreats to the countryside to farm and open a modest apothecary. The land he claims is rich and fertile, seemingly ideal for a fresh start, yet it carries a curse: at dusk, shadowy creatures slip from the edges of the fields, and Leon must periodically put down his tools, take up his brews, and drive the darkness back.
