When wizards find they can no longer hide safely inside the Empire, they turn to the Owls to flee it. Immy, along with her twin brother Eli, and the rest of the Owls have helped countless wizards escape the continent to live a safer life in the Free Nations. Immy is nothing if not an expert on the art of running away. Her life, however, is severely disrupted when she develops strange powers-powers that should be impossible for her to have. Before she knows it, she's been whisked away by a group of people calling themselves "Redcloaks," a name Immy has only heard in legends, and being told that she is in fact their next leader. The Redcloaks claim that she has been chosen by the spirits. She is the greatest wizard of them all. She is the Paragon. And nothing has ever terrified her more.
