As Alanna begins the ritual that will determine Ireland's future, little does she realize that the events of that night will shape her destiny -- whether it is alone or in Kiervan's arms.Ms. Unfortunately, not only is Alanna not too keen on playing a role as Seer of the Ancient Find, but she certainly doesn't know anything about any magical abilities she might possess!
