Everyone has magic, according to Lumia, the Guardian of Light who can shape-shift into a bird – after all, some say humans are descended from elves, including Emily’s grandmother. But can Emily access the magic now that her grandmother’s amulet is broken after a fight with a Shadow Creature? Is she the Sword of Light? Even though she is frustrated, she must look deep within to find the source of magic. Lumia helps her practice, hoping that she can help her find hidden powers. Meanwhile, Farran comes across some Nightshrooms and plans to use magic, even though his friends object.
