Vivi is drawn into a group of magical children and must decide whether to embrace a role connected with protecting the world.
The story places Excalibur, Gelert, King Arawn and magical children within a contemporary setting involving a move from Wales to London.
The clearest points to consider are a frightening monster, a threatening supernatural antagonist, magical conflict and Vivi facing a major move.
This is a grounded book brief while Suitabook strengthens the analysis: some draft conclusions still depend on unresolved evidence.
