Long ago, all magical beings were banished from the Earth into another Realm. For centuries a catastrophic war has raged between the Mystics with no signs of stopping. The only hopes of ending the war lie in the prophecy of the Key: the last strands between Earth and the Realm that can be used to win the war for one side. That Key is a young human woman named Charles Hassani who is summoned by the Goblin King and is hunted in an attempt to be transformed by a diverse cast of other Mystics from all around the globe. Fighting to find her way out of this war she uncovers who are enemies and who are allies, discovers a world filled with the magic the Earth seemed to lose, and finds the dialectic of both the dark and light in all things. This start to the three-part saga gives all a look into the multiple war-fronts: physical, mental, emotional, cultural, social, and spiritual.
