Attacked by the dreaded Witch-servants while sailing to her finishing school, Maira finds herself stranded far from home. Unused to doing things herself (she is a Sovereign Princess, after all), she enlists the help of Aeron, son of shipwrecked farmers, to return home. Trapped on the Mainland, with no way back, Maira knows she must ask the help of the Queen. But Queen Irvette has her own selfish agenda; she will not lend them her dragons without payment. Maira soon finds herself embarking on a dangerous mission to retrieve an article that could save her endangered world. Accompanying her are Aeron, a "heroic" castaway, D vona, an orphan of noble blood, Azib, a mysterious foundling, and Tavin, an unknown. Their enemy is time; time and the Witch-servants pursuing them. Embarking on her first adventure, Maira realizes the value of friends on such a perilous undertaking, where her life is in unfathomable, terrifying danger.
