Elijah Pendleton's entire thirteen-year existence has just been upended upon his discovery of a long-held family secret.

 

Contrary to the belief that his parents' abandonment had been of their own volition - as his misanthropic aunts seem to take great pleasure in making sure to remind him any, and every, chance they get - turns out to have actually been a desperate, last-ditch bid to place him safely from the reach of a merciless and power-hungry ruler; a selfless sacrifice that will ultimately lead to their own imprisonment in a not so faraway kingdom, where legends say they languish to this very day . . . awaiting their son's prophetic return home.

 

This revelation - as unbelievable as it sounds - transforms Elijah, from a boy burdened by the weight of abandonment all his life, into a determined young hero ready to face a new world and reclaim the family he had been robbed of . . . and becomes the igniting spark that will set this extraordinary adventure into motion.

 

Can Elijah's own burgeoning abilities be the salvation that brings this otherworldly realm from the brink of collapse and forge the path to his destiny?
