One quiet day, a magical tortoise named M'lan appears and whisks her out to sea. He needs her help to rescue Raiden--a mortal--from angry sea spirits. She's never met a mortal before, and once she sees Raiden, she finds a strange attraction to him. She returns with him to his homeland in Dragon Hollow, where powerful dragons have protected his people for millennia.

She quickly discovers that life in the mortal world is very different. Warlords and bandits battle in unending warfare. People get hurt. Some die. And her arrival upsets the balance that's kept Dragon Hollow safe. She struggles to understand and trust others. Do they really care for her or do they just need her help? Why do the dragons hate her? Can she believe and even love Raiden or is he deceiving her? And what about trusted M'lan--is even he turning against her?

In the end, she has to decide whether or not to risk her own destruction to save the people of Dragon Hollow. And she discovers hidden powers and passions, long dormant within her.

He uses Aurick’s body to fulfill all of his wildest dreams – become a rock star, have a successful psychiatric practice, and pursue star journalist Helena Way.

Until, three years after possessing Aurick, the other Fallen take notice of these random achievements and begin appearing to Aurick.

Join the ranks and finally be released to Null for atrocities against mankind, or can his love for Helena, his budding friendships, and his growing concern for all humans grant him salvation?
