A doorway to a living world

Lyra Thorn – The Gilly Chronicles isn't just another online store or writer. Every story, artwork, and shop item is crafted like a doorway into a living, breathing world. These aren’t just products — they’re pieces of the Wildernest itself, steeped in quiet magic, hand-crafted lore, and the warmth of tiny brave creatures. We blend cosy fantasy, gentle adventure, and painterly woodland aesthetics into a world that feels both timeless and handmade. Each piece is created with care, storytelling, and a sense of wonder that you can feel.

Gentle wonder awaits

We want you to walk away with a feeling of gentle wonder — as though you’ve brushed against a hidden world that’s soft, magical, and welcoming. We hope you feel comforted, inspired, and a little bit braver, like you’ve just stepped beneath the glowing roots of the Heartwood and found a place you belong. The Gilly Chronicles isn’t just a story; it’s a cosy corner of the world where warmth, imagination, and tiny brave creatures linger long after you’ve put the book down.

The steadfast wonder

If Lyra Thorn – The Gilly Chronicles were a character in a book, her most defining trait would be her quiet, steadfast wonder — the kind that notices the smallest glowing sapling in the darkest forest and believes wholeheartedly in its ability to change everything. She would be the storyteller who walks gently, listens closely, and gathers magic in the details others overlook, weaving them into tales that guide, comfort, and spark courage in those who follow her path.
