Emrys of White Sands is many things: A wanderer with empty pockets and an eclectic skillset. A mage of considerable ability, at least for the ether-poor region that he lives in. And on the run from the wealthiest group in the world, the Dreki family. When he finally gets a scholarship to attend one of the world's top mage schools, the Dreki family starts a war in the very same nation that the school is located in.

Or will the Dreki family drag him back to their hellish island? And what's with the demons ripping through the wastes of the world?
