The quest is almost complete, yet the mysterious flames remain hidden. Darkness awakens…
Phoena’s servant life is over. No more scrubbing floors and picking up after spoilt young noblemen. Goodbye to being the target for their experimental magic. She is determined to enjoy her freedom, but will fourteen years’ service be the right preparation for the all-girls college she is to attend?
That should be the least of her concerns: there is another champion be found. Phoena hopes the selection process will be uncomplicated. But a chance encounter with Lady Nessandra, the most eccentric student at the college, threatens everything. Nessie’s rash decisions activate Phoena’s magical talent in new ways, and the outcome is unexpected.
What will become of this quest if Phoena cannot control her awakening power? Read on to find out if Phoena will survive the coming adventure.
