Hidden in the mountainous regions of the small coastal country of Travane is a rare ore that when ground and added to clayware strengthens it far beyond normal. This ore, known as Kyran, reacts with various additives to transform the earthen clayware into distinctive hues that cannot be produced any other way. The trade of Kyran to the rest of the Continent, and especially the decorative wares produced solely in Travane, once made the land prosperous. However, the secret to making the most scarce and precious form of clayware, Royal Kyran, was lost a century ago. It is foretold that the formula will only be restored to the people when the One of Legend appears.

With times now treacherous, as the son of the RioArd is entangled in a deceptive scheme that will destroy the country, the common people are restless and grow in discontent. As they wait for the One of Legend to find the ancient stone and return Royal Kyran, they plot to overcome the threat CherRio Sage has brought them. Who will save them and restore Travane to its glory?

Faced with the most critical decision of her life, CherRené Rayna doesn't know who to trust. Should she do what is expected and marry Nikalon of the east country, Morat? Or should she go in search of the answers to a dream that won't let her go? With so many differing opinions, Rayna turns to the One whom she hopes has all the answers. The journey that unfolds reveals unexpected friends, hidden enemies, and secrets that will change the future of Travane. Will Rayna continue to obey the Divine to the end, although it cost her everything she holds dear?
