Nathan’s world is defined by seven council members, keeping a harmonious balance between his remote village and the surrounding wilderness. As the village’s newly appointed Earth Keeper, Nathan’s role is to maintain that delicate balance—nurturing the land while taking what the village needs. But as strange changes sweep across the village, from unseasonable storms to failing crops, Nathan senses something far more sinister beneath the surface.

When Nathan discovers hidden carvings on an ancient tree known as the Sentinel, he begins to unravel a mystery older than the village itself. His journey leads him deep into a cave system, where he uncovers the truth about the seven and the immense power the council has been hiding for generations. The village’s balance is crumbling, and with it, the land that sustains them.

With time running out, Nathan must challenge the council, rally the villagers, and risk everything to restore the broken cycles. But as the village teeters on the brink of destruction, Nathan’s defiance reveals a far greater secret, one that could change the world beyond the village forever.

In Bound by Seven, the tension between tradition and truth, control and freedom, drives Nathan on a journey that tests his courage and challenges the limits of what he knows.
