Mani - The silver world, ruled by elemental forces and an Archlord who openly defies them. Lyn is a young woman with white hair and mysterious superpowers. With everyone she ever loved dead or kidnapped, Lyn sneaks into the dark lord's palace to rescue her loved ones from the clutches of a tyrant king. But when the princess herself and a powerful High Mage pull her into their confidence, Lyn is swept into an epic quest for the ancient secrets of her world and her superpowers. For a girl can only for so long hide the fact that a monster lurks inside her, an alien strength unknown to her world - irresistible to those with power.
