“The Land, the magics in it, the life force of the people in it, the very stones themselves, are all part of a magic spell that was created to keep the Light and Dark Courts imprisoned. Our world was created to generate the magic needed to sustain the spell until the end of the Universe. As long as The Land exists, it can power whatever it is that the Universe did to keep the Courts sequestered, and thereby protect every other soul in Creation. That is why the denizens of the Courts want to utterly destroy the world that we stand upon.” Okay, Richter thought to himself. No pressure.
