Story so far…Whit Allgood and his new gal-pal, Katia, did

battle in the City of Progress with a throng of

New Order thugs, whose masters have declared

that all magic be banned from society. Upon their

return to their safe haven, Freeland, Whit’s sister,

Wisty, had some stern words for him, and a wary

eye for his new partner. Meanwhile, we discovered

that the One Who Is The One has Wisty’s new-

found ally, Henry, wrapped around his finger.

Could Henry really be a double agent leading the

young heroes into a trap? Now, with the revelation

of the whereabouts of the book of ultimate spells

(which could turn the battle in Freeland’s favor),

the group attempts to make a play for it. With

Katia’s help, they set out to access Shadowland via

an untried dimension. Has Katia risked their

lives by dropping smack-dab in the middle of a

land where living boulders are about to pulverize

them to powder?
