Lynesse is the lowly Fourth Daughter of the queen, and always getting in the way.
But a demon is terrorizing the land, and now she’s an adult (albeit barely) and although she still gets in the way, she understands that the only way to save her people is to invoke the pact between her family and the Elder sorcerer who has inhabited the local tower for as long as her people have lived here (though none in living memory has approached it).
But Elder Nyr isn’t a sorcerer, and he is forbidden to help, for his knowledge of science tells him the threat cannot possibly be a demon…
Excelentísimo planteamiento con un plantel personajes sencillo pero que hace su trabajo. Para lo cortito que es sabe compartimentalizar muy bien las partes de lore, acción y personajes. Quizás lo único que le falle es el enfrentantamiento final, donde todo los detalles acaban importando muy poco en favor de explosiones. Pero en general, súper recomendable.
