Zealots and Zeniths

Summer has arrived in Pigsend, and it's not just the sweltering temperatures putting everyone on edge. It's the sixth anniversary of the war ending, and a cadre of soldiers is camping north of town to keep the peace and monitor for strange activity. Rumor has it a rebellion is brewing, one that threatens to plunge the country back into war-not that anyone in Pigsend is keen on that.

At the Weary Dragon, Bev's playing host to the usual set of travelers, including butcher Vellora's old commander Andres. The retired kingside soldier came to visit with his dear friend as well as provide some insight into Bev's mysterious past. But when the queen's soldiers find themselves the victim of mischief in their encampment, they've got one suspect - Andres.

Bev's on the case to clear his name, but things aren't quite as simple as they seem. Could Andres really be fomenting rebellion in plain view, or is there something else more magical happening?

Zealots and Zeniths is the seventh book in the Weary Dragon Inn series, a cozy follow-up to Veils and Villains.

Cozy Pairings

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

Mahogany & Teakwood is a grounding fragrance that blends deep mahogany and oak with a touch of soft musk. Warm and woodsy, this scent feels smooth and well balanced, with a gentle depth that lingers in the air. The polished wood notes create a sense of warmth and stability, while the light musk adds a subtle softness, making the overall fragrance both bold and inviting. It brings a refined, atmospheric quality to any space, like stepping into a room filled with history and character.

Why we chose this: Bev runs the Weary Dragon Inn in the quaint village of Pigsend, and she cannot remember who she was before she arrived five years ago, but she has built a life of rosemary bread and familiar faces and a town she would do anything to protect. Mahogany + Teakwood carries the deep, grounding warmth of a series about a woman whose identity is a mystery but whose community is entirely certain, the scent of old wood and worn floors and spaces that hold their people close. It is the candle for every book in this series. Light this candle and let the rich depth of mahogany and oak fill the room like an inn at the end of a long day, where the fire is going and Pigsend is safe for another evening.
