Aleidris - Healer of the Woods
Hidden deep within the ancient forests of medieval England, a young woman rises from unimaginable loss to become one of the most gifted healers her world has ever known.
Born as the sixteenth child to a humble farming family, Aleidris grows up surrounded by hardship - until one tragic night tears her life apart. Escaping into the wilderness, wounded in body and spirit, she is taken in by Edda, a wise and mysterious healer who tends not only to Aleidris' injuries, but to her soul.
When Aleidris gives birth to twins - Cael and Elira - she discovers that love can grow even from the darkest beginnings. Under Edda's gentle guidance, she learns the ancient language of herbs, roots, prayers, and listening. But as her healing gifts deepen, whispers spread... and in a world ruled by fear and the Church, women like Aleidris are rarely left in peace.
From persecution and fire to storms of faith and doubt, Aleidris must choose - not once, but again and again - between silence and mercy, hiding and hope. Alongside the women who seek refuge at the House of Light, she begins to create something the world has never seen: a sanctuary for broken souls, single mothers, the lost, and the forgotten.
Each chapter is woven with the healing wisdom of a sacred herb - rosemary, mugwort, chamomile, lavender, peppermint, and more - echoing the truth that nature heals not only wounds, but hearts.
A story of courage born from tenderness, of faith surviving darkness, of women standing together - and of the unbreakable love between a mother and her children.
This is not only the tale of a healer.
It is the story of what happens when kindness refuses to disappear.
Aleidris - Healer of the Woods
is the first book in a deeply emotional, mystical, and life-affirming historical series -
inviting readers into a world where pain becomes purpose, love becomes refuge,
and hope always finds a way to bloom again.
