A high-fantasy epic centered on a prophecy and the bonds between five young people thrust into a world-spanning conflict between Light and Dark.
The lives of five young villagers change forever when a strange and powerful woman arrives, claiming one of them is the child of an ancient prophecy with the power to tip the balance between Light and Dark forever.
