The Darkbane elves believe it is their penance to spend eternity in Cradelow Valley as punishment for forgotten crimes committed by their ancestors. With their numbers dwindling and their magic lost, the clan's Council makes a drastic decree to ensure the survival of their race. But Liss has plans to escape, along with her dearest friend Dev. All she needs to do is find a spark of magic to prove the goddess hasn't forsaken them. With a little magic, she's sure she can change the fate of her people-as well as her own.

Zan is a changeling, the bastard son of the dragon-elf queen. No one believes that his half-sister–the crown princess, Ayer'lora–is still alive, but Zan knows she is. The Coven stole her, locked her away in their service. Now, the lands ravaged by the witches are stirring to life, and there are reports of activity in the southern ley lines where the Darkbane elves vanished three hundred years ago. If there's any truth to these rumors, Zan will be the first to find out. If the Darkbane return, surely they will facilitate his sister's release. Either way, he'll rescue Ayer'lora one day or die trying.

Using a shifting point of view, this whimsical narrative tells a nuanced tale of love, friendship, determination and freedom against all odds.

~*Thanks for checking out my story! My intention is to keep this updated regularly until it's complete (there are currently over 30 chapters on my PC, so I'll add several a day until we're caught up). CHEERS!*~
