About this listen

Three casters pursue their destiny. A world’s balance hangs by a thread. Can the very shadows that bind Malgar's fate also be its undoing?

In the land of Malgar, where the essence of balance once weaved through the very fabric of life, shadow casters—masters of the arcane, summoning creatures and weapons born of shadow—long stood as vanguards of harmony. But when fear sparked a purge that intended to extinguish their ancient art, the world teetered on the brink of chaos.

But turmoil brought forth reform and rising from the ashes of distrust, three young casting trainees, Kaito, Sumi, and Nigel, emerge as beacons of hope within the reinstated Legion of Shadow Casters. Together they must prove their worth in a society split by fear and prejudice, where their very existence could reignite former conflicts with those that only recently ceased to hunt them.

Caught in the crossfire of tradition and innovation, the fledgling officers face the daunting task of mending a world fractured by the Shadow Caster Purge, navigating perilous circumstances where their kind is both needed and feared. The once-hallowed art of shadow casting, now revered by some and suppressed by others, teeters on the edge of resurgence or oblivion.

With traitorous threats lurking and societal rifts deepening, the path to harmony is perilously shadowed by doubts and conspiracies. As they grapple with looming anti-caster sentiments and the insidious tendrils of a rogue's plot, the trio must learn to bear the weighty mantle of their new roles in a world far more dangerous and complex than they presumed.

Can Kaito’s unwavering confidence, Sumi’s relentless determination, and Nigel’s search for belonging withstand the crucible of their first true test?

Or will the shadow of history loom large, threatening to unravel the delicate peace they've sworn to protect?
