Falling From the Tree (Darshian Tales #2‪)‬

Sixteen years after "Kei’s Gift", Karik is taking his first steps into the wider world. But the question of his parentage, and the role Arman played in his history, are mysteries Karik has to solve. But in doing that, he gets a lot more than he bargained for – and to face the new challenges, he’ll need to grow up in a hurry.
"Landing softly" is a side story to "Falling from the tree".
