In a time of great darkness, when evil sweeps the land, a prophecy foretells the coming of a savior, a child that will defeat the forces of evil and save the world. She is Kyria, the Chosen One.Fleeing Home after a perilous journey into the past, Kyria and her best friends, Mica and Sartir, have to return to the life they had left behind months before, but thanks to the Shard of Time, the mystical artifact that swept them away on their journey, they look as if they did not age a single day. The demands of the Mage's Council are not easy ones, and though school is far less harsh than the unforgiving elements of the Mourning Mountains, Kyria will quickly learn that she has concerns of her own: the school year is almost over, and that brings far more challenges than she had ever imagined. While growing accustomed to life at the Academy once more, Kyria can not help but feel as if the influence of Zoldex has somehow spread into her home. With her prophesied nemesis closing in, Kyria, Mica, and Sartir will soon realize that the ordeals they just faced are nothing compared to what is to come.
