Sarah is the third-born child of the Day family and the sole successor of her family's shop. On her 19th birthday, she was surprised when her second older brother, Dorian, presented her with a strange yellow amulet as a present. Though she didn't have much knowledge of how he was able to acquire such a valuable item, Sarah was still thankful for the little gift. Little did she know that only a few days later, Dorian, along with a few other magicians, would mysteriously vanish without a trace and the seemingly innocent gift she received would be the only clue to where they all could've gone. This left Sarah in desperate need to find her brother. With no one else to turn to, she set out alone to search for them. During her desperate search, she encounters a mysterious man with an unknown past who accompanies Sarah on her journey. At first, many arguments ensued between the two, but slowly, they learned to trust one another, realizing that their best chance at finding Dorian lay in their combined effort.
