There had been four Artefacts of Power, belonging to the four branches of the Magefolk. Now, millennia later, only the human Mages survived, and the Artefacts were lost. Until the coming of Aurian...Child of wizards, swordmistress, the headstrong Aurian had set her power against that of Miathan, the evil Archmage.

But, Miathan's webs of deceit are only beginning to unfurl...
