28 parts Complete "Walking into the small cave now was almost bland, the power too familiar to notice. The fact that the den seemed to lighten instead of darken as it should was encouraging instead of ominous. Thalana followed the path, each step taken with the confidence of a master who had performed the same task thousands of times. As she exited the other side she found herself among a field that, by all logical reasoning, should not have been there. Thalana knew there was some deep magic at play, that she wasn't home anymore, that she was somewhere else, but she had ceased caring long ago. The herbs she collected were useful, and so she ignored the magic burning at the back of her neck.
Except this time wasn't the same as before. This time, someone was waiting for her."
When Thalana discovers a threat to her people, she travels to the capitol city of Oni Nalore to warn her High Chieftan. When the Chieftan dismisses her fears, however, she realizes she cannot rely on the hierarchy and takes the burden of the defense of her people upon herself, embarking on a journey to unite the clans and gain the insight necessary to defeat this danger.
