Then a creature made entirely out of wind destroys her family's ship. It's the Heart of the Storm--an elemental being with the power to level entire cities. Two of the most powerful nations in the Realms, each believing the other released it, are preparing to go to war. But what Mel and her siblings care about is simpler: whoever released the Heart also kidnapped their friend, Timondair Shadowblood. Accompanied by the Aeldir's reluctant apprentice, they set out to find the missing elf.
