For centuries, the Mirror of Shadows has protected the Blessed Island, a place enveloped in a mysterious power that cradles its inhabitants in a maternal embrace and paralyzes its enemies in absolute terror. Only one person can control the destructive power of the Mirror: the Guardian, the undisputed ruler of the Island. The teenager Nuri, whose name means "light", is the daughter and heir of the Guardian, but she is reluctant to accept the responsibilities related to her position. Like every teenager, she would like to be free to choose how to live her life. Her wish is to sail aboard vessels with golden sails that capture the power of the sun, and to fly on transparent magical wings to explore unknown lands. Her dream is to work with the Maker, creating new inventions, rather than weave garlands of flowers or preside over endless and, for her, meaningless rituals. However, her carefree life is destined to change when her beloved older brother Lammas returns from a long sea voyage together with a mysterious and fascinating stranger, Mel'kar, son of Frost, and the Great Sands. When Nuri discovers that Lammas and Mel'kar are plotting to steal the Mirror of Shadows, the secret weapon that protects the Blessed Island, her world collapses. The young woman, her soul wounded by subterfuge and betrayal, will be forced to face great changes, the most important of which concerns herself and her dreams.
