When magic and monsters are involved, the cost of every misstep skyrockets. The claws and fangs of those monsters are right in front of Lia, worse, in the face of those humans who can't even save their own lives. The monsters are the problem until there is something more. A man showed up, he and his magic are even more of a problem--he should not exist, at least...
With her magic, she should be fine... until she isn't.
