A legacy behind him... A destiny ahead... Dariak is overshadowed by the legacy of his father, a man known to all mages, but a man he never knew. Ever compared to his father's renown, Dariak yearns to make a name for himself. When he meets Kesh and explores magic with him, the spark between them ignites a rivalry with an old friend. When things go awry, Kesh is summoned home and Dariak ventures off to find his place in the world and a way to return to Kesh. He soon learns that every action has consequences and leaving the confines of his father's shadow causes him to cast shadows of his own.
