Mananggal, the Land of Monsters, was home of the Dankers. Their society had stood for ages, against all the hostile beasts native to the island-continent. This was the birthplace of Wati Kusumasari. She was too young when her parents were murdered. The mysterious incident somehow still eluded the sultanate's eyes. Nevertheless, Wati was undeterred. Allured by Mantra of Wellspring, she believed that excellent service to the Legion would grant her a seat in the magical colleges. But The Great Protector had other plans for her. Wati was oblivious to His choice, as any other Dankers. It never dawned on her that four Praskovian giants would play part in her life.
