Six Knowings of ASAIRA STUBBS C.

A Metaphysical Fantasy for Adults and Young Adults

Written & Illustrated by Carmy Stubbs

The Six Knowings of ASAIRA challenges the Reader to participate and reflect on their life, and the answer the Call of the Heart. The story itself is a remarkable, unique reading experience, intertwining text, poetic voice and illustration.

Sitting under the Ancient Tree in the forest, Aileen receives a shimmering message about fulfilling a forgotten Promise.

The Storyteller, perplexed but amused that the Story has started without him, introduces himself to the Reader.

Sparkling Messengers whisper, “Fulfil the Promise, Aileen, Child of the Earth. The Green Meadow awaits you…”

A mysterious word repeats itself, “ASAIRA… ASAIRA… ASAIRA…”as Aileen merges with the Tree of Lands and finds herself in a Mystical Sea of Silverness.

Here starts the most extraordinary of transformative Journeys into Six Magical Realms of lost kingdoms and dimensions, dark earthy depths, heavenly domains, forgotten lives, goddesses and gods, sacred shapeshifting guardians and protectors, joyful rainbow beings … and Six Profound Knowings.

But each Knowing contains a lost Truth deeply hidden in a ravenous energy of fear, pain, loss and anger.

Will Aileen be able to face these perilous energies? Or will the Truth be too much to bear?

When Aileen disappears in one of the Realms, the Storyteller loses control of his telling in a spiral of confusion and doubt, and also disappears.

How can the Promise made at the dawn of time ever be fulfilled now?

The Messengers and Elemental Voices all turn towards the only one that can help Aileen and the Storyteller.

THE READER.

WILL YOU ANSWER THE CALL?
