Absolutely everything! Though she does not know, there are people that do. The Council Circle - the Guardians of the Guardians, are fully aware. To her astonishment she will too discover her mother is among the keepers of The Secret. As, are two others; who stealing their way under the cover of darkness, return to Rumla intent on fulfilling a duty long overdue; a duty, she unknowingnly, is one of four destined to prevent.
