In one village she finds Wiel, a boy with the rare mage talent known as taylen that is linked to a fatal illness. Jaena takes Wiel to the city to try to save his life. Too late, she discovers she has delivered Wiel into the hands of the Mage Defender, who rules by stealing the magic - and the lives - of children.Desperate to right the wrong she has done, Jaena races for aid to save Wiel and destroy the Mage Defender.
