Magan and Dzorin returned to Sharvik after many trials in their quest to return the people's god to his temple. But no one greets them. The village is empty. They must find their people and let them know Iah will return. However, Magan has other plans. A teacher is coming, one who will help her learn to use the magic residing within her. One who bears a magical sword and who will teach her more about being a warrior.In the early morning sunrise, they part at the gates of the village, each wondering if they will see each other again. Nor do they know who will make every effort to block their efforts to return Iah to his people.
