The trouble with trying to find yourself is that you might not like what you find....

Somewhere beneath the teeming streets of the city of Molkolin lies a legendary well that reveals the true purpose of anyone who drinks from it. The wizard Adramal and her father believe it holds a secret that will help them defeat the evil god Zorian.

Galdrakh, the well's owner, has closed it to all visitors. Galdrakh's aunts believe the well really belongs to them and hire Adramal to prove it. The city authorities suspect Galdrakh is smuggling a magical dust used in the colored glass that is the foundation of the city's fortune and recruit Adramal's father to help. But nobody seems to know what to do about the pilgrims who've come back from the well with an important message that they won't - or can't - deliver to anyone....
