Gabe has failed. The spirit world is empty. The Lady is silent. Facing the failure of his apprenticeship as shaman, Gabe must decide whether to give up and return to his family's farm or try once again. For generations, the shamen in their forest have guided and protected the people of the plains with visions from the spirit world. Their wisdom and lore have brought lasting peace between the clans and with their neighbors to the south. Now, tensions are rising and the land is unsettled. Unknown to himself, Gabe is at the center of the storm. Can he break the silence and complete his apprenticeship before the storm breaks?
