Moirin possesses ancient magic - the ability to summon twilight and coax plants to grow. But her true power lies in an unknown destiny beyond the seas. Raised in the wilderness, Moirin comes of age to discover her illustrious heritage: the granddaughter of a legendary mage, the cousin of a royal ruler, the daughter of a D'Angeline priest. Accepting the gods' divine call, she embarks on a perilous journey east, facing vengeful mages, desperate warrior princesses, and the spirit of a celestial dragon. Moirin's gifts may be her only hope of fulfilling her fated role and surviving the challenges that await.
