Overview

Dark Lord Mortlock once commanded armies of shadow, his name whispered in terror across the realms. Now, he commands a trowel and a hose, dedicated to cultivating the perfect heirloom tomato in his idyllic cottage garden. His retirement plan: peace, quiet, and absolutely no world domination. But just as Mortlock is settling into the serene rhythm of village life, tending to his prize-winning pumpkins and swapping gardening tips (under duress), his worst nightmare moves in next door: Sir Gideon, the righteous Paladin who spent decades thwarting Mortlock's every nefarious scheme. Gideon, too, is seeking a quiet life, a place to finally hang up his sword and pursue his passion for artisanal cheeses.\n\nOld habits die hard, however. Soon, garden gnomes are mysteriously vanishing, spells are subtly wilting prize-winning petunias, and what started as polite neighborly passive-aggression quickly escalates into a hilarious, low-stakes war of wits, weeds, and minor magical mayhem. Can a retired Dark Lord and his former nemesis truly find peace in the same pastoral village? Or will a shared love of baking competitions (and a surprisingly persistent pest problem) force them into an uneasy, utterly ridiculous alliance?\n\nPrepare for a charming, laugh-out-loud adventure where the greatest battle might just be over the last strawberry scone.
