The dying seer's words spell doom for Irenya.
If she stays in Dar Orien to save their way of life, she might never see her infant son again.
Hopelessly lost in the desert of Midrash, Irenya faces the legendary griffin and, without fanfare, a new seer is silently declared.
An act of revenge delivers Irenya the knowledge she needs, but her return to Melbourne is tragically far from anything she had imagined.
An alien in her own world, she must decide her fate and that of her son Mikey.
