Agnieszka didn't know she was a witch until the day of the choosing. The Dragon Sarkan was coming to choose which of the young girls of the valley would fill the role he needed them to for 10 years, but Agnieszka threw a wrench in those plans. Now she needs to learn how to be a witch, being taught magic that she doesn't quite understand, and deal with the corrupted Wood threatening to devour her home. Can she save Polnya?
