The Keep
By Rita Borsi
Turning eighteen was a blessing for any orphan. That is for every orphan
except for Lane. No one in Stanlow had offered her a job so she had no
means to survive the deadly winters of Stanlow. That's why she decided
to leave Stanlow and head South. She needed to find a new place, a
warmer city. And she especially needed to find a place people didn't
know who she was.
With the help of Miss Deleon, the keeper of the orphanage, Lane
decides to go to Caragain, a big city where people of every walk of life
came to. Once there, everything was going well until one night
everything changed. Before she knew it, she was running for her life.
Days later she wakes up at a Keep, where she meets people that could see
what she saw. They could also see the shadow crawlers. Apparently she
was one of them.
A guardian.
At the Keep, she get to know Kage, Diana and Luke. With the help of
Kage, the commander of the Keep, Lane learns she can do more than she
knew possible. As she breaks the mind barriers she has built when she
was little, she learns what happened to her parents and how she ended up
in Stanlow when she was three years old.
As she learns about this whole new world, a Greater demon arrises in
Redwater. He wants Lane gone and he will stop at nothing to get it done.
