Her people count on her to give them hope for the future.During the spring celebration, two of the village children are kidnapped and Alana must find a way to use her unwished-for power to guide a trio of villagers in rescuing the children. But darker forces are at work, great sacrifices must be made and things get worse when the children turn out to wish not to be saved...
