Mara is a huntress with a dangerous power that forced her to leave her home. Dima is a mapmaker with a legacy to live up to. When they meet, they find exactly what they need in each other. But Mara can only guide Dima so far through the wilderness. Once they reach the frozen wastelands in search of a lost city, they have to find a way together. They face sudden illness, harsh terrain, and mysterious sounds in the night- and what they find in the lost city of Geldin might have consequences. The legends were all wrong- and what can they do to save the wasteland town that took them in?
