At thirteen, the day of her first period, she acquires an ability to split herself and see from two perspectives.

That's why the belief in it was phased out over eons. But the island of Maripesa took a different approach. They used those eons to breed a system that \u003cem\u003euses\u003c\/em\u003e magic to maintain order. Spell types are genetically bound to family clans. The upper clans curse. The mid clans repair or heal those curses. The lower clans have no magic. Anyone who breeds outside their clan is executed. It is a simple and perfect balance of power.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eYears later, Maripesa's rigid calm devolves under an upper clan spellwar and, not coincidentally, Aza loses everything. Sick, fearful and grieving, she's thrust alone into the unfamiliar city where she encounters hypocrisy and deception-so much worse than the twin evils of curses and maladies. But there are also good people with wells of kindness and wisdom; the experience of romance and sexual awakening; profound new kinships; and a burgeoning awareness of her own power. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eShe finds women who have magic similar to hers.
