Some magic is best not to be born with.In a world controlled by magic, not everyone wants the "honor" of being an Elemental Priestess and becoming a slave to the Church of Four Orders. But when Ria calls upon magic to save her best friend's life, she discovers there is something worse than being able to control water, air, fire, or earth. There is another power, one that is forbidden, and its use is punishable by death.Ria must flee everything she has known to outrun a creature sent to capture those who use tainted magic. Her best chance of success comes in the protection of an outcast Water Priestess who might choose to betray her as much as help.
