Seventeen-year-old Torissa is a daughter of a charlatan, and she regards magic as nothing more than a trick to earn their daily bread. But ever since the persecution of magicians, she is forced to switch between dusting books in a forgotten library and hunting for food in a monster-infested wilderness.
