Brief Summary

Seven seemingly-ordinary teenagers in our world are suddenly faced with the unthinkable truth that they are endowed with special powers and are really Elven Lords from Allyra, an alternate reality. Sentinels from Allyra disguise themselves as librarians and teachers on Earth, attempt to find the Seven and bring them back to their true homeland.

But the Sentinels are not the only ones seeking the teenagers. The Spider King, the tyrant conqueror of Allyra, has sent his haunting assassins to Earth to slay the Seven. The Seven Lords battle to survive the Spider King's wrath and return to Allyra, their elven home.
