Fire in the Forest - Mages of Trava, #3

That which burns usually becomes ashes. But in the kingdom of Trava, where sorcery is almost as common of an element as fire, that which burns may instead become infected. An unknown evil threatens to consume everything from a travelling caravan to a royal matrimony ceremony. All it takes is for a single ember from the mystical flames to transform Travan and animal life into plant life. This ever-expanding danger forces the sorceress Embekah Mare into action, beginning with a visit to the old hovel where she was once held hostage by a spell of entrapment.
Aligning herself with new friends and old enemies alike in this crisis, Embekah soon discovers that the roots of this peril may well lay in her past. As the blaze and plant growth threaten the very heart of Trava, Embekah must grapple with risks to her own heart. Can she resist the sweet temptation of surrender long enough to restore the natural balance of the elements themselves? Or have the Travan Fates themselves aligned against her in this latest supernatural clash?
