Elijah was dying. He was diagnosed with terminal cancer and his days are limited. So, after deciding to spend the rest of his time with his family, he boarded a plane and flew to the Pacific Northwest to be with his sister. However, in the process, the earth was transformed by the touch of the World Tree, infused with magical ether, and connected to the larger universe through the system. However, more importantly for Elijah, this also caused his plane to crash and be stranded on a desert island. But all is not lost, and through this system he gains the druid archetype, which may be enough to allow him to survive in a hostile environment full of powerful monsters as well as mundane threats like hunger and the elements.
Meanwhile, his sister Alyssa must survive the collapse of civilization as she knows it while trying to keep her family safe.
