Kunon Gurion is born without sight. Refusing to accept blindness as an unchangeable fate, he devotes himself to water magic. His series of personal experiments quickly reveals his talents, as Kunon's grasp of magic grows at a pace that surpasses even those tasked with teaching him. Through constant trial and invention, he develops methods of perceiving the world that do not rely on ordinary vision, reshaping water into constructs that allow him to navigate his surroundings. His ingenuity and rapid progress soon draw attention beyond his lessons, setting him on a path of discovery that tests the very limits of possibility—as well as of his own body.
