Before the formation of this world, Almira and her adopted siblings prepare to take a "mortality test" designed to hone their mettle toward inheriting their parents' kingdom. There's just one small catch: during the test, participants won't remember who they are or why they're there. One world formation later, Emily Starp enters the big city as a young adult with no past. Between various fish-out-of-water hijinks, she finds The Book of Panosyn, the teachings of an ancient philosopher with knowledge of other worlds. Once a day, mysterious boats depart for the east, promising to follow Panosyn's path. No voyager has ever returned. Upon receiving an enigmatic invitation, Emily boards a boat and departs on an adventure through the mists into the unknown. She encounters interesting people in new lands, finding laughs, romance, mystery, and hardship. Forgotten siblings arrive in Emily's present with unknown motivations. Are they here to help or hinder her journey in unraveling the mystery of Panosyn's gate?
