"Without Kaelen's knowledge, I had his little plaything sent out of North America.That same night, he cast a blood-vine curse on my parents, banishing them to the wilds—a wasteland prowled by rogues. He was going to trade my parents' lives for the whereabouts of his plaything.Kaelen pushed a communication crystal in front of me.
