"None of this makes any sense." "Have you seen our world? Most things don't." **** The small town of Lotus Valley isn't like anywhere else - not for the seven Elements, at least. Most people live their entire lives without even glimpsing the truth. But life in the valley is different for the few who see it for what it really is. When Caeden moves to the valley and discovers he has the power of fire, he knows his life is about to change. But that doesn't make it any easier. Struggling with controlling his new powers, Caeden wonders why he was given such a blazing, uncontrollable burden to bear. When fate reveals that Rowan, his only friend, has secrets too, the combination of their gifts starts to unearth some answers. But it's not enough. Only the Elements - ALL of the Elements - can set things right before a force known as Aether consumes and corrupts the entire valley. Caeden and Rowan and all of the others have no choice but to call upon something powerful and dangerous - the very thing they're fighting against - to save their extraordinary home. **I own the characters, ideas, and plot line of this series.
