When you're one of a kind, you go where you're needed.
Scouts are the best trackers in the world, with or without magic, and they followed the Dark Magic south. Since her unique abilities let her face Darkness and trap it, Aili and her friends are on their way to help. This might be a chance to stop the Darkness from spreading, once and for all. The land has dangers she never dreamed possible. Who knew snow got so deep, the cold could hurt you, and bears got so big? At least tracking in snow is easier. That's assuming she doesn't die of hypothermia, get eaten by a bear, or get caught in an avalanche. Will she even survive long enough to find the Darkness she seeks? If she survives long enough to hunt down the source of Darkness, what will she find? Will she and her abilities be enough to keep her friends safe? Can one little light really dispel the Darkness, or will Aili be overwhelmed and snuffed out for good?
