Relates the story of how magic comes into the world of Recluce, its past and the founding of the Empire of the Legend, the almost mythological domain ruled by women warriors on the highland plateau of the continent of Candar. The story is told from the point of view of Nylan, the engineer and builder whose job it is to raise a great tower on the plateau known as the Roof of the World, where the exiled women warriors will live and survive to fulfill their destiny. Here a revolutionary new society will be born...if Nylan can get the tower built and defenses in place before the rulers of the lowland nations come with their armies to obliterate them all. And if Nylan can learn to control the magical powers that are growing within him.
