My first memory is a fog teeming with monsters. I don’t remember who I am or how I ended up here, but for some strange reason the monsters don’t touch me. When I learn that I came from the fog, some want to burn me as a witch, while others protect me. Even the king’s advisor sends me as a spy to the Nergard castle to watch an unwanted sorcerer.
At first, that sorcerer seems quite kind. But they’re all hiding something, and I’ll have to figure out who here is the good guy and who is the bad one—how they’re connected, what role I play, and why I immediately got on the wrong side of the head of the Nergard guard. And only one chance acquaintance is definitely on my side, even though he doesn’t know me at all.
