The Hymn is a Christian reformatory house located deep within the stoic Blank Forest. To many, the forest is known for its alleged "magic" encounters. To Ty Ebers, resident of the Hymn, it is a place she calls home. Ty, however, due to her isolation from normal Raelinian society, knows nothing of magic except for the fact that it runs in her blood and her Headmistress and mother Cathrin Ebers hates her for it. As Ty discovers the true limitations of her gifts, a threat lurks under the surface and simply waits to pounce.
