Alice has been dreaming of a cottage by a lake and a field of wildflowers, but while walking blind in a snowstorm she stumbles into a house that only seems empty and abandoned...

The Mercy Seat There is a place hidden in the mountains, where all the people hate and fear magic and Magicians.

After all, the year before her father's body was found with his heart missing, and since then everyone has moved on.
