Imagine a society without anger, without sadness, without fear, without greed. It would be perfect, and for the bustling coast city of Mordeka this has become a reality. Magic has found a way to accomplish the impossible; people can now be separated from their negative emotions, but all magic comes with a price. Kiera is is 16 years old and on her island home of Koranth, she and her siblings have to live with this price every day. They're forced to face off against inner demons -embodiments of the anger others sent away- as they fight for control of their bodies and their minds. Tino is five and a half, in his mind technically a big kid. So far, he has lived a pampered life in the city of Mordeka, full of sweets and toys and colors. Ever since he could remember he has been taught about the bad things that used to be in the world and the awakening that sent them away. When a spell goes wrong, bringing the two of them together and causing her siblings to lose control, Kiera must work with Tino to find those responsible and unravel the magic that has turned their world upside down.
