But she cannot forget what she witnessed in the High Lord's underground room - or his warning that the realm's ancient enemy is growing in power once more. As Sonea learns more, she begins to doubt her guildmaster's word. Could the truth really be as terrifying as Akkarin claims, or is he trying to trick her into assisting in some unspeakably dark scheme?

"Even if a magician's powers surface of their own accord, he will soon be dead if he does not gain the knowledge of how to control them." Alone among all the novices in the Magicians' Guild, only Sonea comes from lowly beginnings. Yet she has won powerful allies—including Lord Dannyl, newly promoted to Guild Ambassador. But Dannyl must now depart for the Elyne court, leaving Sonea at the mercy of the lies and malicious rumors her enemies are busy spreading ... until the High Lord Akkarin steps in. The price of Akkarin's support is dear, however, because Sonea, in turn, must protect his mysteries and a secret that could lead a young novice mage deep into the darkness. Meanwhile, Dannyl's first order to resume High Lord Akkarin's long abandoned research into ancient magical knowledge is setting him on an extraordinary journey fraught with unanticipated peril as he moves ever-closer to a future both wondrous ... and terrible.

Each year the magicians of Imardin gather to purge the city streets of beggars, urchins and miscreants. Masters of the disciplines of magic, they know that no one can oppose them. But their protective shield is not as impenetrable as they believe. As the mob is herded from the city, Sonea, a young street girl, furious at the authorities' treatment of her family and friends, hurls a stone at the shield, putting all of her rage behind it.

After five hundred years of order, the guild's worst fear has been realised - an untrained magician is loose on the streets. She must be found, and quickly, before her uncontrolled powers unleash forces that will destroy both her, and the city that is her home.

Since then she has been collecting information, including a vital clue to the disaster Tyen's world faces. Elsewhere, in a land ruled by the priests, Rielle the dyer's daughter has been taught that to use magic is to steal from the Angels. Yet she knows she has a talent for it, and that there is a corrupter in the city willing to teach her how to use it, should she dare to risk the Angels' wrath. But not everything is as Tyen and Rielle have been raised to believe. Not the nature of magic, nor the laws of their lands. Not even the people they trust.

In een land waar de vrede wankelt, dat met gretige ogen wordt beloerd door een cultus van verre, dat wordt belaagd door in het geheim opererende indringers, in dat land zijn al vier mensen, de zogeheten Witten, uitverkoren om als zwaard en schild - kortom als beschermheer - van de goden op te treden. De jeugdige Auraya is voorbestemd als vijfde lid tot de Witten toe te treden. Immers, met inzet van haar bijzondere gave voorkomt Auraya de vernietiging van een vredelievend dorp, een daad die jaren later wordt beloond met haar benoeming tot Priester van de Witten. Eerst moet Auraya evenwel bewijzen die eer waardig te zijn. Dat betekent dat zij, de jongste dienaar van de goden, een levensgevaarlijke weg moet afleggen waar haar talloze hindernissen en valkuilen wachten. Zo zou de hechte vriendschap met de Dromenwever Leiard - die lid is van een eeuwenoude, geminachte, heidense cultus van magiërheelmeesters - haar wel eens duur te staan kunnen komen.

In dat streven staat de man in het zwart niet alleen...

A Imardin è il giorno dell'Epurazione, l'appuntamento annuale durante il quale, su ordine del re, la Corporazione dei maghi scaccia dalla città vagabondi, mendicanti e tutti coloro che sono sospettati di vivere da fuorilegge. E, come ogni anno, gli abitanti dei quartieri poveri si radunano nella piazza del Nord, per protestare, urlando la propria rabbia e lanciando sassi contro i maghi, i quali, però, essendo protetti da una barriera magica, ignorano altezzosamente quella rivolta. Tutto sembra svolgersi secondo un triste ma collaudato copione; poi, d'un tratto, una pietra manda in frantumi la protezione e ferisce un mago. Tra l'esultanza della folla e lo sgomento dei maghi, viene subito individuata la responsabile dell'incredibile gesto: è Sonea, una giovane orfana, che subito dopo fugge via, spaventata dalle conseguenze della sua azione. Ma la Corporazione dei maghi non può permettere che qualcuno dotato di un simile potere sfugga al loro controllo e vuole trovare la ragazzina per convincerla a unirsi a loro e a sottoporsi al necessario addestramento. Tuttavia, all'interno della Corporazione, c'è anche chi trama per sfruttare Sonea e raggiungere così i suoi scopi malvagi...
