Description
Ruethwyn’s life was destroyed by a dragon.
Maimed by the attack of a dragon, Ruethwyn was only spared by the grace of the mercurial dark elf Essryl, who gave Ruethwyn two years to save her beloved from captivity or risk losing her forever.
Whisked away to the premier mage academy of Selwyn, Ruethwyn finds herself among those who believe she is useless, but she refuses to give up. Her determination propels her through all obstacles in her path, and she is joined by an aspiring mage-knight, an enthusiastic kitsune, and a quiet but loyal healer.
Opponents may threaten all Ruethwyn hopes to achieve, but they don’t know something important.
They don’t know that nothing will stop Ruethwyn from rescuing those she loves, not even having half her body burnt away.
