Claire finally has a clue to her mother’s whereabouts, and she won’t let anything stand in her way this time.

Not even the Syndicate, the fact that it could be a trap to lure her out of hiding, or the seemingly insurmountable mission she is currently tasked with: to find the other Star Children while she still can. The mark on her arm is slowly consuming her, body and mind, and it’s a race against time to complete her mission, locate her mother, and hopefully, find a way to stop her magic-- or at least slow its potentially devastating progression. And to top it all off, a certain silver-haired elf refuses to leave her alone. less

Claire’s time is limited. The mark is consuming her. Magic needs to be restored, but will it be worth the cost? Humans will think of her as a traitor, the elves a savior. If nothing is done, there won’t be anything left at all. With only a clue on where to go, the journey ahead will push Claire to her limits. Can a simple barmaid really save the world? She’s about to find out.
