Bert Hudson used to be a simple man with not much of a plan.

One day, as he mourned the loss of his wife, Gwen, he went for a long overdue hike. It was something to start the long road back to being healthy. After all, he had promised his wife that he would.

Well, some hikes are more difficult than others. This one proved incredibly difficult due to a touchy immortal named Felicia and Bert's complete inability to avoid sarcasm.

This all ended with his head forcibly ripped from his body and then his resurrection by first Felicia, who managed to keep his severed head alive, and then the Mothman himself -who prefers to be called Larry- completing the job. Worse news was to come, as his new body was not compatible with a low-magic world like Earth,

So he ended up elsewhere.

Along the way, Bert meets a psychotic pixie named Bell, creates a magical traveling version of the sentient building known as The Waystation, finds new friends and family, and is finally reunited with his Wife.

In the process, he triggers the return of the Fae, flattens at least one town, and manages to piss off just about everyone.

In short, it has been a busy few months.

Worst of all, his reunion with Gwen did not go as planned. While she leaves to pursue her own interests with the Fae, Bert is left with his new family to try and figure out what is next and where he stands with Gwen in the future.

Gwen did leave a parting gift; however... the troublesome Felicia is given a permanent warning to avoid Bert in the future.

Will she listen?
