Ami (Guardianes del Amanecer, 2)

Li Ami, without a family or normal magic, has always felt out of place. Exiled to the far west of the Dawn Kingdoms, Ami is the sole caregiver for her troubled father, a former imperial mage whose outbursts are not mere delusions, but possible fragments of a dire prophecy. When her father is arrested for tearing a branch from the sacred tree, Ami volunteers to work for the mysterious Beast of the castle, who needs someone capable of translating a forbidden book on magic and finding a solution to the mysterious plague ravaging the harvest. Meanwhile, as signs of magical corruption mount across the Dawn Kingdoms, Jin Zhara begins to feel lost. She may have defeated a demon lord and discovered her identity as a Fire Keeper, but the impending elemental battle against the mother of ten thousand demons overwhelms her… unless she can find the other Dawn Keepers. Her magic alone will not be enough to stop the rising tide of undeath, so she needs the Guardian of Wood, who possesses power over life and death, to defeat the reborn that plague the lands. The threat of the mother of ten thousand demons grows stronger every day, and the fragile peace that holds the Kingdoms of Dawn together begins to crumble. Ami and Zhara must travel to the Root of the World to close a potential demonic portal and restore balance to an increasingly chaotic world.
