A Letter from the Lonesome Shore

Dive into the charming conclusion to the Sunken Archive duology, a heart-warming magical academia fantasy filled with underwater cities, romance of manners and found family, perfect for fans of Emily Wilde's Encyclopaedia of Faeries.

Former correspondents E. and Henerey, accustomed to loving each other from afar, did not anticipate continuing their courtship in an enigmatic underwater city. When their journey through the Structure in E.'s garden strands them in a peculiar society preoccupied with the pleasures and perils of knowledge, E. and Henerey come to accept—and, more surprisingly still, embrace—the fact that they may never return home.

A year and a half later, Sophy and Vyerin finally discover one of the elusive Entries that will help them seek their siblings. As the group's efforts bring them closer to E. and Henerey, an ancient, cosmic threat also draws near...

Cozy Pairings

Each pairing is chosen to create a cozy moment where scent, story, and craft come together.
Langston

Langston is a warm and expressive fragrance that opens with spiced notes of nutmeg and clove, softened by the richness of worn leather. At its heart, delicate jasmine and smoky cade add depth and complexity, creating a balance between softness and warmth. The scent settles into a smooth base of vanilla, sandalwood, and amber, bringing a gentle sweetness and a lasting warmth. Layered and inviting, this fragrance feels both comforting and full of character, with a richness that lingers beautifully in the air.

Why we chose this: E. and Henerey fell in love through letters filled with passion for their mutual interests and then, inevitably, for each other, and now they have vanished and their siblings are piecing together the correspondence left behind to find them. Langston carries the warm, layered richness of a world built around scholarship and letters and the slow, careful work of understanding someone through what they choose to write down, spiced with nutmeg and clove and softened by jasmine and vanilla. It is the candle for every book in this series. Light this candle and let the thoughtful warmth fill the room like a desk covered in correspondence, where every letter holds more than it says and the love between the lines is the most important thing of all.
