Surviving in Loctern means using magic, and using magic makes you a target of the city’s ruthless assassins. Joanna is no stranger to life in Loctern, but when her father’s past comes back to haunt her, she finds herself drawing upon powers she swore never to touch. This pilot episode depicts a single night from Joanna’s childhood—one that would alter the course of her life for years to come, and ultimately send her on a desperate quest to challenge the cosmos.
