HISTORY:
Rory is a suburban girl from a world like ours, where no one uses magic and the supernatural is considered something from children's imaginations (which Rory has plenty of). She spends summers with her grandparents on their farm, where her grandfather indulges her by allowing her to drive tractors and carts around the farm. In addition, her times with her grandparents, she is allowed a great deal of freedom to wander and play in her own imagination.

Rory's parents are both professionals. Her father is a programmer and her mother an English teacher. She has two younger, twin siblings Eli and Emma.

Rory leaves this life forever when while catching fireflies in her grandparents fields, an aurora opens an ocean before her. Unable to resist the temptation of something so wonderous, she steps through to another world, finding she cannot go home. A storm forces her into a strange lighthouse, where she is transformed into an Abdal by an unnamed bald angelic figure. She is awakened by James, and quickly must transition into dealing with their world and the Wicked Children.
