In the land of Maldos, the birth of the fraternal twins Bernum and Malkia was considered as a sign of perfection. Perfectly balanced. Yin and yang. But the birth of their deformed younger brother, Dennik, and the death of their mother was considered the ultimate of curses and the child was regarded as a demon by all except for his father, brother, and sister. The twins vow to learn magic to find a cure for Dennik--but in Maldos the equality of yin and yang is a facade. Only boys are allowed to openly study magic--so while Bernum goes off to the magic school Malkia must secretly study under a witch posing as a midwife. All goes well until Malkia's letters cease--and Bernum must find out what has happend to her. For what can harm a witch can just as easily harm a magician.
