People several generations ago talk about what they were doing during the explosion of the Space Shuttle Challenger. People of the next-younger generation say the same thing about China's annexation of Siberia. But people of this generation can all remember what they were doing when the power commonly called "magic" returned to the world. Despite the chaos and calamity that took place afterward, that moment remains locked in the memory of all humanity.For Tommy Nelson, his power was dormant and forced to emerge well after the government began hunting down those accused of using magic.The strongest mages learned to create hidden sanctuaries for their followers. They kept themselves, and each other, safe from a world that vilified them. Now, Tommy was one of these mages. Living under the protection of a powerful Archmage, studying and training, Tommy was now a part of the fight.
