Troubled times are coming in the blessed Valley of the Magi. The Guild of Battle Mages has reached its peak: orders from different worlds are pouring in one after another, other Guilds require accompaniment on travel, and there are not enough battle magicians for everyone. However, the laws of the Vale, established by the Founders themselves, prohibit any expansion. Then Richard d'Assini, head of the Guild, calls for a change in the law. So Clara Hummel, a battle mage for hire, finds herself caught between two fires - in a conflict between her Guild and the Archmage of the Valley, Ignatius Copper. And at this time, far from here, a young catcher of magical creatures named Evarha receives an extremely unusual order. And no one knows that these events are closely related, and they will lead to a real disaster...
