Happily exiled to a semblance of normalcy, Tavin Witchell has deliberately forgotten that he is also Baron Witchell. He hasn't used magic properly in years, and he's barely thought about the stagnant Mageplane and its stifling society of mages. The worst of his troubles have been maintaining his family's dilapidated mansion and making sense of the welcome but confusing affections of his close friend Ben. But when Tavin gets a strange phone call about his brother, he realizes that the derelict magical world must be in its final death throes. Unfortunately, Tavin's best friend Amelia and his niece Emmaliss have talents that could be warped to resurrect the dying world. Hoping to hide them from those that would sacrifice their fledgling talents, Tavin slips back into his old life as Baron Witchell. He thinks it will be a simple waiting game; convince everyone that Emmaliss is dead and Amelia doesn't exist until the Mageplane breathes its last breath. But instead, he finds himself violently propelled into intrigues that began centuries ago.
