Become the Chosen One. Get access to sweet all powerful magic. Defeat the big bad. Get the girl.
That's how it worked in all the stories Sarai heard growing up. Only she's lived in a world that's been holding out for a Chosen One for two decades with no luck, and she's really not happy about the sneaking suspicion she's getting that she might be first in line for the job!
Because being the Chosen One sucks. Being the Chosen One means dealing with all the crap that comes before the climactic battle with the big bad.
It means having a crazy evil sorceress hellbent on conquering the world suddenly taking a personal interest in her life. It means having the village she grew up in razed to the ground. It means having mages and magebreakers chasing her for magical crimes she didn't commit.
It might mean losing the love of her life just as things were starting to get interesting!
Sarai didn't ask for this fate, but fate is a jerk that doesn't care what Sarai thinks as she's getting screwed over and pulled into a life she never asked for. So it's up to her to make the best of her new seemingly unstoppable magic, a command of the unquiet dead, and a desire to do whatever she can to avoid all the nastier side effects of being the one destined to save the world!
