Quelia Fent was your everyday, run-of-the-mill, genius in-training. Until a mysterious stranger finds her and takes her to a school of ryles. Ryles perform magic acts with the help of wists, little bead-like weightless spheres of energy. She accidentally uncovers a plot to take over the world and now is faced with many tough choices. Will she and her two best friends, Owen and Luxory, find what has been lost and save the school? Or will Edward Curruthers's plot be successful? And will life as we know it be changed for good.
