Cassandra Rho has found new friends and unexpected romance in the beautiful city of Pelesea. Still, the family she was forced to leave behind in Oldorburg haunts her. When Cassandra is suspended from the school of magic and forced to serve in the goddess Gella's temple, she discovers surprising peace-and basic hedonistic temptations she finds hard to resist. In the temple, an old hermit finds Cassandra and provides knowledge about both her mysterious origins and her calling: to find a powerful artifact called Zolmex and fulfill her destiny. Joined by unexpected companions, she embarks on the treacherous journey. Meanwhile, her sister Kessi is held captive by a powerful, cold-hearted priestess who believes her to be the key to summoning the demon-god, Marnelphion. While Cassandra fights to survive the quest for Zolmex and to save her family and ultimately the world, an old rivalry poses an even greater threat than an unleashed demon. The Quest for Zolmex is a deeply layered, fast-paced read through The Adventures of Cassandra Rho.
