'As her father's health fades and he is no longer able to work, Saatcha takes it upon herself to keep the forge running.
'But when a pair of thieves appear in the dead of night, Saatcha's duty to her father is torn from her. Forced to leave her home behind, the bounds of magic that once held Saatcha begin to slip away.
