It is the opportunity of a lifetime. Magi Adept Wylt Gairn is on the verge of being accepted to compete in the Advent Trials in Kingsent and join the ranks of the Order of the Magi. But without his training partner and companion Bridain Adair, his long sought dreams might come crashing down.

Young Shepherd Candidate Bridain Adair heads into the dark forests outside of Western Terrus for a clandestine rendezvous. What she finds in the dead of night, is nothing she expects to see.

On the Camlynn Plains, Magus Nelana Nisir of the Order of the Magi arrives on a field of battle. There she finds that a mystery awaits her, lurking and hidden in the mist and fog.
