"You are the halfling's caretaker, in charge of her mental state and overall health. A task that any magician would feel the strain of, and yet you a normal without a smidgen of magic would take it on even without knowing all the facts. Besides," he continued with a small smile. "I believe you told me you would welcome my meddling when it came to the child."I could not help but smile in return. "Yes sir. Even with what little I know now, I still would have taken the position.""Why? And don't bother trying to tell me it was because a governess was your only choice in vocation. You made this choice of your own free will, in ignorance. Tell me why."Born into a world where magic makes you one of the elite, orphan Jane Fae must learn how to navigate and survive without magic, as a normal. Fleeing the abusive restrictions of her school's headmaster, she takes on the position of governess to a halfling (part human, part sprite) girl at the stately and remote Thornfield Hall. Jane soon learns her new home is frequented by the magical and illusive creatures known as the Fair Folk. Her life seems to settle into a predictable routine of mutual teaching and learning, safe from any magician who might mean her harm. With the arrival of the master of the house, a Mr. Edward Rochester, a wealthy magician whose philosophy is considered counter culture, she begins to question her narrow perception of the world. Are all normals bad and destined for hard work? Are all magicians superior simply because they poses magic?
