They say Axis Mundi is the place between Heaven and Earth but it's far from heavenly. Ravaged by wars, this world and the countries within it are finally beginning to see some light. Except for a few. Tiana lives in the abandoned city of Northpass, where everyone has left it and moved on after the wars except for a few. She must remain there and look after her sick grandmother and her younger brother. They wished to move onto pastures anew were it not for the illness and lack of money. However, something comes along that may change Tiana's fortune. Leon is a dangerous, ruthless mage searching for something that will give him unlimited power. He hopes that once he finds the key to success, he'll find peace. He didn't expect to find this in a forsaken city. What will happen when these two young individuals' paths cross? Will it bring light to their lives or darkness? "You have no idea what I could do to you." "Show me. I've seen it all."
