WAYWARD
A powerful Enchantress gone astray, drawn to dark, wicked magicks; a faithful Wizard sworn to uphold both the Enchantress and the kingdom she seeks to destroy; the High Kings fading into ruin. After the first Enchantress's demise, the peoples of Caeradin determined that no such creature could be allowed to rise to power again. The surviving nobles devised a solution - the Witch Hunt.
​
Seven centuries later, Master Rhys Claytherdon decides it is time the most prestigious household in Caeradin makes a few changes. Soon to inherit his father's realm as Lord of Gildio and Master of the Hunt, Rhys is determined to see the Witch Hunt ended. All that stands in his way is his tutor and household advisor, Lord Mage Vespar--renowned as the greatest mage in Caeradin. Rhys makes his ultimate choice by rescuing a six-year-old witch from her inevitable death sentence, and he must face the consequences. What he can't imagine is how this child, granted with tremendous magical gifts, could prove to be the salvation or ruin of all of Caeradin.
