Layla, labeled a "talentless waste with no magic gift," scrapes by gathering herbs in the remote town of Darkbrook. She is in fact the hidden bloodline of House Lind, secretly sheltered to avoid a family catastrophe. She chances to save a dying little white snake, unaware it is Silas Frost, the Sovereign of the Heavens, whose divine realm has fallen and whose power has been sealed.
