It starts with a prophecy, but it doesn't end there. A girl with no memory in a strange place will do all she can to protect her newfound family. The cost is high, but she is ready. Are you?
In the great forest to the north it shall appear
With the mark of the heavens
A pure heart on a noble mission will find the mark,
But a person with unlocked knowledge and powers will protect it
It will come, protect, and bring a new era of happiness to the kingdom.
The mark must find the four wronged ones
in order to succeed before an era of darkness overcomes us all

The old servant, Dot, knows what Alex truly is-and what he will become. The Goddess whispers to him in dreams, guiding his hand toward a destiny written long before his birth.
