Emily and her friends arrive in Alledia to find a cure for her mother, poisoned by the venom of an archanopad. But the locals are waiting for rescue themselves! Their lands have been seized by elves.
The mysterious whisper of the amulet tempts Emily to harness all its power. And that could solve the problem, but only if she renounces her friends and herself... It seems that the stone's guardian is not only gifted but also cursed!
Emily must save her mother, and the lives of the people of Alledia are also at stake. This means she will have to learn to control the Amulet so that, despite everything, she can remain true to herself.
