Everyone in Addeline's village is special, on their 18th birthday they are gifted with a spirit creature. Anything from a meek mouse, to a ferocious predator. It all started with the original spirit of the phoenix and dragon, the epic battle which changed the world and the lives of the blessed. They now live in small villages spaced apart as to not draw attention to themselves and cause the mistakes of the past to resurface. Addeline starts to have strange things happen to her the week before her awakening that will change not just her or her villages lives, but the entire blessed peoples lives across the world as her awakening is not the average awakening. She learns what her spirit is and the dangers that come from being blessed with such a spirit. She feels she is more cursed then blessed as everyone close to her now becomes in danger as her spirit brings to light a prophecy long forgotten. She must come to terms with what she is as she fights for those dear to her.
