Merel Pedler has kept her world under perfect, flawlessly measured control. A high achieving young wizard who has specialized in alchemy and purification, she is a tenured professor at one of the isle of Moras' finest schools in magecraft. Here, in the mountains, Merel is far from the troubles of her life before, content to situate herself financially and maintain her delicate health in relative ease and comfort. Yet Merel's ambition gets the better of her when she is called to the Bluestone Hearth in the service of the King of Moras' court mage as his aide and assistant-- as well as his possible successor. Yet another potential contender for the position has also come to Bluestone, a young nobleman's son by the name of Kiarn Mannix-- and the world has begun to change in small, slow, gradual ways that begin to ask more and more of both young wizards. As ancient powers seep through the bedrock that founded their understanding of their world, and as the challenges of living in a world turned by magic catch up with them, Merel and Kiarn face and rediscover their worlds in the way only they could.

A high fantasy, low action, high stakes character driven narrative novel featuring a visibly physically disabled protagonist, dense worldbuilding, a burn so slow you'll scarcely know it's even warm, and far too much conversation about the price of herbs. Much of this is also based on medieval studies and extensive research into medieval ways of life, and blends it with original mythological cycles. While this is not heavy on action, this is a pensive character study that involves a lot of being not-so-cozy, actually.
