Author's Note: This is my first fic so please read and review (reviews are very welcome) Reviews will tell me if you like the story and will tell me to keep writing. The prologue is very short and I'm sorry but it sets up the plot pretty well. The upcoming chapters will be longer but not that much longer. The main pair is Daine and Numair and this takes place after ROTG but before POTS and I tried to stay close to the charters and plot of the books but I know I didn't. I hope you will like my story and please review.

Disclaimer: None these characters or places belong to me except for Gavin and Silverwood Towers, so you can't sue

Prologue

Gavin, tall, strong warrior-mage, with light brown hair, and green eyes, sat under a tree thinking about the recent news in Tortall; Great things including Daine, the Wildmage, and her fiancé Numair, a very powerful mage. Numair and Gavin had been friends while studying in the University. Numair always studied and his Gift became stronger; Gavin was always out somewhere but always kept his grades above average but never as high as Numair. Numair's Gift became strong and powerful, eventually and Gavin became jealous and tried to steal his Gift and failed horribly suffering a sentence in the Carthaki prison. After that they never spoke again and Gavin never fully got over the jealousy of Numair's power.

Now Gavin realized that Numair had become the most powerful mage in Tortall. This made him very envious. He decided use a powerful enchantment that very few mages had learned to steal Numair's Gift without any hope of him getting it back.
