Magical guardians once guided the people to treat all Earth’s creatures with reverence. The mystical winged serpent, Challis, lived within the chosen guardians, guiding them to promote a peaceful co-existence. When her spirit transcended from the mystical amulet to the next spirit keeper, darkness eroded her purity, making her pure magic a new vessel for darkness. When the new keeper’s reign was broken, the damage had already been done. The keepers faded into the backdrop of our history, praying that one day a new generation of guardians would restore the balance of their world. No one could have known centuries would pass, that it would take a modern world to retrieve the magic of long ago.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eWhen fourteen-year-old Seraphina Miles is sent to live with her estranged archaeologist father, she has no idea she would be in for the adventure of a lifetime.
