Meet Jessica Goodman. She's your average brown-haired, green-eyed orphan. And she's human. At least, that's what she thought. When she was just a few months old, she was dropped on a kind family's doorstep. She grew up in Rock Point, Arizona with her Arabian horses and her two "parents", never the wiser. The only thing she had from her birth parents was an odd amulet, and she doesn't even know it came from them. Then, a few months before her 17th birthday, she gets kidnapped, flown through Darkness, and dropped in a really weird, strange world. All she wants to do is go home, but can she? Nope. She gets practically slapped in the face with prophecies, telling her she is destined to save the world or some such bull as that. Jessica? A 16-going-on-17 year old? No. Way. But, after all, life is like a whirlpool: you get drawn in ever closer...
