Wrongly accused of witchcraft, pretty young Aed escapes death at the stake and drowning. Latent magic is aroused in her. A series of adventures takes her to Dragon's Mouth where she finds her sorceress mentor, Aitheda who might be immortal. Aitheda has an incredibly powerful magical sword called Gobansaor. This sword will affect their lives far more than they realise. Aed studies hard and hones her skills using the four elements of magic before leaving the sanctuary of Dragon’s Mouth. Aed’s journey takes her through several cities along a circuitous route. Along the way, she experiences tragic losses, the joys of new friendships, betrayal, trickery and romance. The daunting fifth element of magic is learnt about and mastered at great cost. She also has to use her awesome powers on many occasions to defend herself or those she cares about. She naively learns that trust has to be earned and that people cannot be judged by appearances alone. Read this exciting story and be prepared for the unexpected around every corner...
