Plot summary and main characters

Kaylie Ames chose to attend college in Austin, thinking it was far enough away from home to create the distance she needed after her father had been killed in a mountain rescue operation. Her mother and brother each withdrew in their own ways. Still, she continued to grieve.

One day she discovered her old friend Elliott on his knees in the middle of a grocery store aisle. She did not recognize her old friend at first; his eyes were shut and he looked ill, mumbling something unintelligible. She helped him off the floor and brought him outside where he quickly recovered. At first Elliott would not explain what had happened to him in the grocery store; he eventually invited her into his circle of friends and into the world of Edannair.

Edannair is a fantasy MMO (massively multiplayer online game) where you can build your own avatar, learn and develop the skills for the creature you choose as your avatar, explore a complex and infinite world, build alliances, forge online relationships with friends and new acquaintances and compete in battles and raids.

Kaylie had never really been a gamer before, or even competitive for that matter, but as she became immersed in the online game, things began to change. While spending countless hours in her chosen role of Loxy, she finds her real-world troubles beginning to dissipate.... until she finds out about The Holder.

In Edannair, you can compete and show off your talent by joining teams. The highest ranking team, and most renown, is the team of Sarkmarr which is ruled by The Holder, a character whose true identity is hidden. The Holder tests his members through online trials and dangerous offline, real-world tests called morphis assignments. It was a morphis assignment that had brought Elliott to his knees in the grocery store the day Kaylie found him.

As Kaylie learns more about The Holder and his manipulative and destructive morphis assignments, she decides infiltrate his team in order to defend her friends by defeating him. After a period of tedious training, her application is accepted. To move up in the ranks, past the tiers to become a full-fledged Sarkmarr member, her character Loxy must pass the dangerous morphises that The Holder designs specifically for her.
