Memory Glue. To brew it Alexis just needs eight ingredients: stuff like nose hair from a baku (dream-eater) sweat from a duyung (sea siren) and...OK. Maybe some are tricky to find in local supermarkets.. To obtain them Alexis must journey to a realm where the fabled creatures from Grandpa's folktales are alive in the flesh (and often flesh-eating).. At least she'll have fun company: the nasty kenit (forest imp) who'd cast the horrible spell on Grandpa and her no-nonsense Grandma who harbours a secret that'll change Alexis' life forever.. Piece of cake right? . Oh there's also a deadline.. Can Grandpa be saved before he's forever lost to the mists within his mind?. Based on a true story. .
