From a young age, Cary Simms knew that she wasn't like the other boys her age. She was only starting to figure out just how different she really was. However, she fears that going down that path would place an impenetrable wall between her grandparents and herself. Magic always seems to come between them.
Rumors had been floating around the magical realm about the fairy rings, the portals between realms, dying off. Only one portal has shown that it is unaffected by this trend, the portal that is across the street from Cary's house, created by the cloaked figure before Cary's tenth birthday. Now that Cary is growing into her power, the UAMR Council is tapping her to reach out to the cloaked figure. Only such a quest is likely to prove quite dangerous.
