\"book<\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n

Winter won’t go away,
talent isn’t always rewarded,
what else will Sofi endure? (don’t ask\u2026)<\/p>\n\n\n\n

After years of obsessive practicing, long-motherless 16 year old Sofi’s perfect performance is upstaged by an untutored young woman who didn’t even bring a lute<\/a> to the Guild audition, yet wins apprenticeship to the ruling lute Musik, Sofi’s own father.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Lara didn’t use a Paper to perform, or all would have seen the spell inked into her skin – music is the only craft forbidden to use the Paper spells sold by the king.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

When Sofi’s father suddenly dies, Lara must immediately qualify to be the lute Musik by traveling through the country and performing specific complex songs in certain towns – songs that Sofi knows and Lara doesn’t.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Away the two young women go with the Musik’s lute made of bones, through their ever-winter land, knowing that some Musiks of the Guild want Lara to succeed, but if she fails, perhaps Sofi has a chance at her life’s dream.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Why did the seasons stop changing when they were babies?
Is Lara using illegal magic to learn this complicated music<\/a> so fast?
Will the malfunctioning Papers sold to neighboring kingdoms lead to war?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Rivalry becomes companionship and so much more, as Lara and Sofi begin to truly understand the magic of their musical gifts and their growing bond with one another.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

What instrument would you play if magically given the skill?
