Unbeknownst to Nate, he has been hunted his entire life and the hunters are finally closing in on their prey. For Nate's twin sister, Thalia, learning is a joy. School is sculpted entirely out of ice, lessons are taught by Mages who can breathe fire and frost, create clouds, move water just by thinking about it, whip up wind and can turn objects into birds and stone. Welcome to Cascadia. Nate finds his way to his ancestral home of Cascadia to discover his family locked in a generations old battle against a dark Outcast whose power is rising, who can transform himself into shadow and who is counseled by a ghost. The Outcast believes Nate is the key to his demise and Nate dead. To survive, Nate is schooled by the Mages in the old ways as he prepares to battle the powerful Outcast in a duel to the death.
