As she battles a deadly cancer, Lissa lies in her hospital bed-unaware that very far away in the city of Light's Keep, a group of wizards have chosen her as their champion. Trebb, a master wizard who leads the light, believes that Lissa is the long-awaited child of the scroll who, with her powerful magic, will change the balance of light and dark forever.
