A Jackdaw's Feather

Few people know that Svea of Hoorne is an Unregistered Mage, although it has made her indispensable as her village's healer. When a chance event causes her magic to do something unexpected, Svea's spouse Esben becomes convinced she might be able to cure the ever spreading Wilt that threatens the kingdom. But even though Svea's magic is exceptionally strong, it might cause more harm than it will do good. Telling Esben the truth, however, means she risks losing him, but traversing the country may not be the safest thing to do for an Unregistered Mage now that the fearsome Roper is on the hunt.
