Summerbird Asii has always been an inept seer; why try to deny it? She's spent her young life hiding her fractured magic, in a land where magic will get you a death sentence faster than any crime. The last thing she needs is a gruff, wheedling griffin appearing in her cottage. He might be the size of her cat, but he's a magical creature, from a forbidden magical land, and he's requesting her help. What? No. She was born in the magical land of Emythor, but she was dumped here as a child. She wants no part in rescuing highborn Fey with compromised magic. But the griffin's story intrigues her. Though the evil sorcerer who captured sounds scary, she wavers. What's in it for her? Can she stay in Emythor if she succeeds? Does she have a choice? She doesn't. But as the griffin leaves her to decide, his parting words are an irresistible lure to a young woman desperate to learn of her stolen life- "would you like to learn your magic?" "Summerbird Rises" begins the tale of a young seer, whose ultimate talent is her appalling inability to see the future or work magic. Her lack of talent is actually goddess-sent, as the last thing she wants is the heavily armed men who enforce the 'no-magic' law to catch and jail or even execute her. When a gruff griffin shows up in her cottage, her life will never be the same. Follow Summerbird as she returns to the land of her birth. The griffin's simple words lead her to learn who-and what-she really is, and what life-changing secrets have been hidden from her. Why did her grandfather leave her in a cold-bloodedly non-magical world with a well-used green-crystal ball, and the words, "This is your legacy. Forget whatever you see in it."
