Marcia saves Boy 412, a mysterious boy in the Young Army, outside the Wizard Tower from freezing to death, and takes him with them to her room in the tower. Marcia takes Jenna away to protect her from an Assassin. At which point, Marcia also reveals Jenna as the previous Queen's daughter. The story revolves around the events of the time ten years after this incident, starting when Marcia comes to take Jenna in her to protection to stop her from being assassinated. Silas names the baby girl Jenna and raises the child and protects her like his own child. Just as he is out to enter his house, the matron midwife runs out carrying his newborn son Septimus Heap (who has been predicted to have extraordinary powers as he is the seventh son of a seventh son) wrapped in cloth and pronouncing him dead. He meets her in an alley way before he gets back and she tells him to keep the baby he found, raise her as his own and if anyone asks, acknowledge her as his daughter. Upon returning to a castle, he learns about the succession of Marcia Overstrand as ExtraOrdinary Wizard. He hides her in his cloak and takes her with him.
Just outside the castle Silas finds an infant baby girl with violet eyes, stranded in the snow, and wrapped in a blanket.

But first, Simon Heap must get his master to the Port Witch Coven's door, which may require a bit more Darke Magyk-and a much stronger stomach-than he bargained for. In this tale that takes place between the stories told in Magyk and Flyte, the witches want DomDaniel's powerful Darke Toad-and will go to ridiculous lengths to get their hands on it. “A fresh take on the world of magic.”-Child magazineĭomDaniel returns in a hilarious escapade with the witches of the Port Witch Coven.
