Chapter 1: Trouble

A year had passed since Gaea's defeat . . . so of course it's about time something went wrong. The goddess of magic is missing. With Hecate gone, the Mist is fading, gradually opening up the mortals to a world they never knew existed. And opening them up to new dangers as well. A quest has been issued: discover who took Hecate and why, find her, and free her before the Mist disappears completely. Soon, an unlikely group has been chosen: Piper McLean, Nico di Angelo, Jay Sordino, and newer arrival Melody Devereaux. Perhaps fate can be accounted for throwing the four demigods into each other's lives, but it can hardly be blamed for the friendships that bloom . . . and maybe something more.
