Elli grew up hearing about the adventures of her older brother Raa'Kiild and her sister Amara, as well as hearing tales of great hero’s like Skov, Gadrin, Tsare and Ordena. But she never wanted to be a hero, she preferred to leave the heroing to others while she spent her time dabbling in alchemy or reading books of others saving the day. But then her sister Yadoua died tragically, and an emergency meeting was called to assign the Tigherna on special missions to fight against the forces of chaos. And now it was up to Elli to decide if she would stand and fight with all of the others? Or run and try to hide from the ever growing tide of chaos?
