With power over time, consequences abound...
When a curse plagues the land, reversing sixteen years of prosperity, Andrew is tasked with repairing the damage, but every use of his magic leads to consequences. Friends old and new gather at his castle, but their needs tax Andrew’s abilities further, while secrets of his past threaten to tear asunder the relationships he has with them, further complicating his mission.
Visitors from his past, a wyvlor in his midst, and damage to his castle force Andrew to face decisions he would rather not pursue. Who should receive the benefits of his magic? Are the consequences worth it? After years without love, can he pursue happiness? Can he face his past to deal with the present? Should fate run its course or should he intervene to craft a new future?
Shadows lurk behind every decision. His magic has consequences, but so do his choices, and the fates of those around him lie in his hands.
To Andy Castle for helping me through the darkest of times.
