Magic and Stone

On Tobar, magic is dying, and the living Stones are magic. One by one, they are ceasing to exist. Something is causing their magic to die, and not even the wisest of the Stones know why. Jaida, a young Stone, tries to understand what is happening to her people. They have lived on Tobar for centuries. Once, their magic was powerful, but now it is failing. Thus begins an epic tale of two remarkable women and the magical Stone that guides them. Jaida reaches out to the only other source of magic on her world, the short-lived people who inhabit the surface of Tobar. Her first attempt to contact these people goes horribly wrong. The men do not understand her voice and destroy many of the Stones.

Jaida discovers that not all people possess magic, and they are killing their people with the gift. Soon they will destroy all magic on Tobar, even the Stones.

She finds Llari, a young girl with powerful magic who can hear Jaida's voice. But can Jaida trust her? The elder Stones say no. Jaida has no other choice. They must work together to save magic.
