Alcina Biancofiore, the Magic Queen of the Blue Mountains, protector of the lands of the Mark, has just passed away and, as her final wish she had a silver bracelet of exquisite make delivered to her great niece Sibyl. It is said that the bracelet was crafted by the fairies themselves and hanging from it are five charms: a mermaid, a storyteller, a giant, a fairy and the Magic Queen's crown. At fifteen years old, Sibyl Biancofiore has a true passion for mechanics but she knows that to achieve her dream of one day having her own workshop, she will have to leave the mountain village where she was born and raised. For in the Mark, land of poets, storytellers and legends, women who can write and do sums are never seen.
