The Strawberry Plague killed hundreds of thousands, including everyone the Silver Falcon had ever loved. But who is the silver falcon? Everyone knows she wears a silver cape that flows like water. They know if you see her and she doesn't finish you off herself, bad luck will. Most of all though, they know she is the most dangerous woman to ever walk the face of the earth. But they don't know who she is. They don't know she is Aria Orissa, the niece of King Casper, the reigning ruler of Quallerton. They don't know she is looking for the love of her life, Zev Sander, because he was taken from her by the Manic Admirals, a group of terrorists who travel from town to town, kingdom to kingdom, kidnapping magic-sensitive children. Most of all though, they don't know she's got the most powerful magic in all of Quallerton, maybe even the world, on her side: her own.
