A malevolent shadow hangs over Theysia, seeking vengeance for being snuffed out by those it believed inferior. Its eyes are set on the capital city of Minraz, where the decedents dwell. Nyzir and Sineram, two up-and-coming mystics, are roped into the plans of a being that makes even the mightiest beast subservient to its better. Though armed with powerful magic, the siblings must learn that power alone can't protect and that sometimes the best weapon is both unconventional and unsuspecting.
