Facing the Fire - Forest Guardians, #2 - E-book - ePub

Wasn't magic supposed to make her life better?The magical lightning trapped in her body destroyed her ability to control her powers. Her emotions are erratic, and she bursts into tears for no reason. She doesn't dare try using any magic abilities at all, for fear of demolishing the Scout camp she calls home. Her one chance to regain her new life is a visit to an old friend, the best healer in Athia.
While back in the capital, Aili learns that their last mission wasn't as finished as she hoped. There are more people involved, all seeking immense magical power. Great mages play a political game she'll never understand. Her powers make her a target, as they can tap into her abilities for their own benefit, and she doesn't know how to prevent it. Even she doesn't know what her limits are, or what risk she poses to others if her powers are stolen.
Aili takes refuge in the forest with her friends, where they discover the problem is more complicated than they thought. Something is affecting the forest she swore she'd protect, and a sickness is spreading through the plants. Mages are hunting her. Fire is a constant danger in an older forest, and a careless spell can start an inferno. Can Aili survive the ride of her life and find out who's behind everything, or will she perish in the flames?
