When Princess Cammerrina (Cami) awakens on board a ship, she has no memory of anything in her life. In the process of trying to stay alive, she stumbles upon an insidious plan to invade her homeland and enslave the people. As her memory returns, so do her magical powers, and with the most unlikely allies, she sets out to thwart the effort of a demented wizard to steal ancient magic that could make everything she feared come to pass. Fate carried her to a far-off land once ruled by great families wielding powerful spells. When their civilizations were destroyed in the Great Wizard Wars, they left behind marvelous cities and hidden magic that could also destroy the world known to Cami. She, along with a Eurolan Woodie and a Morak wizard, pit their wits against the man and the magic that must be stopped if her way of life and her family are to survive.
