The Brazen Serpent Chronicles Talon of Light and The Caduceus Magic has long mystified the unlearned, but we know it is simply the application of eternal principles that are generally unknown to the world at large.  The real mystery in life is the human heart--the loves, the fears, the sacrifices, and the cruelties.      Personal history of Winna--Master Historian of the court of Standel Talon of Light For years Vandria had hidden herself and her son from her past, but the scry basin revealed they had been found.  When an ancient evil returns to the world and abducts Vandria to drain her spiritual essence, can her son Widseth learn the principles of light that will enable him to face evil and save his mother? Choices face not only Widseth, but society.  Will they choose light and truth, or slavery and death?  Will powers of light surface to challenge the darkness?

The door opens.  Which will emerge...a dragon of light or a dragon of darkness?
