Magic is no longer a myth. It's a record of the truth. John Sullivan is an exiled Indigo Mage, cast out from the Order of Guardian Mages. In the shadows of the human realm, he and his hot-headed apprentice, Karen Smith, spend their days removing malevolent entities that live among humanity. On a whim, the Master decides to record his day on video, using their occult cases as an opportunity to initiate viewers into the fundamental mechanics of real magic. He shares not only unknown lore but working spells and ancient techniques with his audience. But as the camera rolls, they are suddenly confronted by the return of an ancient evil. Eons ago, this darkness once enslaved the human world until the Order of Guardian Mages defeated and banished it from the planet. To ensure it could never return, they placed a defense of twelve crystals around the world-protecting it from danger, yet isolating it from the life teeming in the galaxy. Centuries ago, the Vile Seven, loyal servants of the Dark Lord, attempted to summon him back, but the Order's swift intervention thwarted their plan. Now, after hundreds of years of silence, the Dark Lord is reaching out from the universal void to reclaim the human realm. As a rare galactic alignment approaches, he must seize an ancient relic and the extraordinary power of a mysterious child. His loyal servants seek to deactivate the Planetary Energy Shield, clearing the path for a conquering army. The location of the relic and the identity of the child are known only to their guardians-and one of them is John Sullivan. It falls solely to the Master and his apprentice to face this ancient threat, protect the crystals, and guard the secret of the child. The stakes are nothing less than the existence of humanity. The spell is real. The apocalypse is inevitable. The Master's makeshift lesson turns into a battle to save the world!
