Two thousand years ago, the Wizard Wars nearly tore the land of Aeroth apart. In a desperate attempt to end hostilities, the races created a powerful weapon; the Jewel of Peace, and the Spirit that could unleash its awesome potential. The Stone worked, but the Wars had already ravaged the land. Civilizations crumbled, and for generations, the races struggled to survive and adapt, forgetting the accomplishments of the past.
Now chaos stalks the land again. The tyrant Broman lusts to take up the Stone and twist the world into his personal plaything. The Wizard Ord desires to find the Spirit and manipulate it to his will, exacting his revenge and taking his place on the world stage.
It falls to the humble mountaineer Geret to take up the mantle of a millenia-old battle and tame the Spirit he unwittingly inherits.
As war savages the land and pits nation against nation, hope hangs by the thinnest thread; a mountaineer with Spirit against a centuries-old Wizard willing to use the Stone to smash the world asunder.

In a world devoid of hope, where evil masters of magic have poisoned the common man against magic's purer form, and dark powers twist even the sanest minds, only Karen has the ability to truly stand as protector of the light.
The cruel tyranny of the Guardians has touched everyone, and all have suffered loss at their hands. Those who would fight that base villainy meet with fear and hatred. Karen, together with a band of faithful friends, including the laconic warrior-tracker Manfred, the impetuous youth Jans, and the distrustful rebel Joanha, holds the key to overthrowing these enemies. But to do so, she must embrace her own darkness and risk the lives of those she loves.
