Jorn Jabbots is a human living in Bielran, one of the fortified settlements along the borders of once elven territories. In one of his adolescent explorations of the city he meets a mysterious elven girl that has the God-given power to defeat the mage responsible of her people's exodus. Three years later the forces of the mage approach to take Bielran by siege. That's when Jorn finds Leara, the elven girl, even though he has never seen her since. He ventures to help her and her friends—and finds the outside world far different from how he imagined it.
