Fire Get

When ancient powers wake - Serii, once the domain of all-powerful Sorcerer Kings, now dwelt in relative peace, the wizards who yet remained left with but a remnant of the Power that had once enslaved entire lands. In this kingdom where magic was hated and feared, Lady Rhianna had been taught to deny the Power she herself possessed. But now ancient forces were stirring in Serii, and, for the first time in millennia, a master sorcerer had been born, Kaedric, Lord Venkarel, who could save Serii from the Evil that threatened or himself become its portal through which to invade mortal realms. And Rhianna, fleeing the marriage her father had planned for her, was drawn to Lord Venkarel and his quest for the Taormin, the legendary Power focus which must never be allowed to fall into enemy hands!
