When teenage Miralee saves some village children by fighting off a demon with nothing but a song, her life gets out of control. She wants to be a bard, but her father is against such an impractical and unfeminine pursuit. Miralee's blossoming powers make everyone in her village begin to view her with fear and distrust. And what about the Shadow Knights who appear one day and take an interest in her? Are they true protectors of the land, or are they as corrupt as the demons they are pledged to fight?
