The Four Families
In the shadow-touched town of Jamesville, four ancient bloodlines carry the weight of divine covenant and elemental power. Bound by the Binding Accord—a pact sealed in divine blood—each family commands one of the prime elements while bearing terrible curses that ensure their gifts come at a devastating price.
The Nightwolf Family commands the whispering winds and storm-swept skies. Their Air magic grants them power over tempests, invisibility, and the ability to hear voices carried on the wind. But their curse is madness—they hear the voices of the dead in every breeze, and too much magic may drive them to insanity. Their ancestral home holds a vast library of forbidden knowledge, sealed rooms containing records from the Salem era, and artifacts that respond only to their bloodline.
The Roanoak Family rules the silent depths of earth and stone. Their magic animates the ground itself, commands plant growth and decay, and can create living constructs of root and rock. Their curse is gradual calcification—the more they use their power, the more their bodies slowly turn to stone. They are the nurturers and healers, deeply connected to the natural world and Roma traditions through their alliance with the traveling gypsies.
The Noirlion Family wields the everflame, masters of fire, heat, and emotional manipulation. They can ignite passion, fear, and rage in others while summoning infernos that burn beyond normal flame. Their curse is a burning life force—their blood runs hotter with each use of magic, and most heirs die young, consumed by their own power before age thirty-three. They are the warriors and protectors, fierce in their loyalties and quick to anger.
The Miecznik Family controls the flowing tides and hidden depths. Their Water magic shapes liquid, manipulates blood, creates fog, and even allows them to alter memories—for memories flow like water. Their curse is erosion of self—the more they wield their power, the more their own memories fade, until they may forget even who they are. They are the strategists and scholars, analytical minds that see patterns others miss.
The Binding Accord established four unbreakable rules: One element per bloodline, one heir per generation, no intermarriage between families, and most crucially—the four shall never unite. For should all four families work together, Caine, the god of Magic, Balance, and Vengeance, will return to render final judgment.
But in the autumn of 2008, the pattern begins again. Four teenagers—Steven Nightwolf, Sarah Roanoak, Devin Noirlion, and Valerie Miecznik—find themselves drawn together by forces beyond their understanding. They share dreams of Salem's fires, where their ancestors attempted the forbidden unity three centuries ago. History echoes in their connection, but this time, something is different.
A fifth family lurks in the shadows—the Verrenthex line, keepers of memory and guardians of boundaries, working to protect the balance from forces that would see it destroyed. And in the darkness between worlds, ancient entities stir. Sister Thorne, a consciousness older than the Accord itself, seeks to unravel the divine bindings and claim dominion over the elemental forces.
As supernatural threats emerge from the spaces between reality, the four families must choose: honor the Accord that has protected them for generations, or risk everything to forge a new path that could save their world—or end it entirely.
