Book Description
Tara is happily delivering heart-wish messages from Segwin, the head sorcerer of the Faerie Realm, when she learns about the evil that awaits her and her team of helpers--the faeries, elementals, and elves. The Insorrents, an enchanted group of boars that appear as dogs, swoop in and capture or kill their prey. Segwin has seen their plans through his magic mirror. Now the carefree days have changed into fear and dread. At fifteen, Tara had been sent to the Faerie Realm, just like other girls before her. She would remain there being of service for one hundred years. Luckily, when she returns to Mu, her home, she and everyone else would only be one year older. After doing this rewarding work for five years, Tara is overjoyed when suddenly a girl appears exiled from earth, and their relationship grows just as the danger becomes all too present. Some malevolent energy haunts Tara as she walks in the dark forest, delivering her messages. Finding out that the presence is Monomer, the wicked wizard who is responsible for creating the Insorrents and possibly other evil entities, is too much to bear. Tara is faced with challenges beyond her imagination. Would the Insorrents capture the team, putting an end to the heart-wish service? Does Tara have the strength and creativity it will take to continue this work, or will she succumb to her fears?
