When the world loses its magic, will those who rely on it band together, or will personal problems and petty greed still take precedence?
Varista isn’t a wizard, she’s a thief, and not a well-accomplished one. But after an accidental fire, she ran and hid in the first place she could find, the wizard academy tower. So for months she’s spent her time dodging questions and the notice of her fellow students. In the city outside, Peronyl Landowe continues his quest to climb the council ladder and eventually rule the city. Capturing the fugitive will go a long way to securing his place, if only he could find her.
Now, hidden external forces relieve the world of magic. Varista, thrust from the safety of anonymity, must solve the crisis while avoiding the authorities. Meanwhile, Landowe has tasked himself with benefiting from the calamity and outmanoeuvring his opponents. Their worlds are about to collide.
Will the wizards and politicians of the city set aside their vendettas and games to protect the citizens? Or will Landowe finally capture Varista and bring her to an undeserved justice?
