In a realm where tools vanish under shadow and suspicion, the great wizard Mark steps forth from the ancient order of Apprentice 121. Cloaked in arcane knowledge and quiet resolve, he joins a troubled company caught in a string of mysterious thefts. At his side is Sam, a sharp-minded ally determined to trace the stolen tools to their hidden source. Yet their quest is far from smooth, as Jamie—ever impatient and prone to interruption—disrupts every attempt at clarity. With secrets stirring and tempers flaring, Mark must guide the group through conflict and confusion, wielding wisdom as his greatest spell.
