Centuries ago, a kingdom was torn apart by old magik long forgotten. 


It caused a rift separating the lands into one of peace and one of torment. 

Now, as the latest in the line of guardians, Tábalainthe has been chosen. She must be the one to banish the nightmares seeping over from Sàgilorc, their afflicted brother-world. 

But as darkness begins to creep through the border, and sightings of the mysterious Frontierwalker become rampant, Tábala’s sheltered home is in grave danger. 

With age-old secrets, dangerous missions and questions of loyalty afoot, Tábala must do everything in her power to protect her people. 

She may soon discover that playing games of heart and rituals can be fatal.
