Time Will Tell (Tilli Of Kingsfoot, Book 1)

She could be the first female NUM to become an E'rudite...but at what cost? Tilli worked her way up from a life of poverty to become the first female servant to a Master E'rudite, but it wasn't enough. She had deep aspirations to become the first female of her kind to become an actual E'rudite. For years, she did everything she could to achieve this personal quest to succeed where none of her kind had ever reached before. Finally, her opportunity came. All she needed to do was complete one final task for her master before he would begin training her. She simply had to deliver Runestones to a secluded location and then return without anyone else knowing the exact placement. However, in order to complete the mission she must face her worst fears and sentence her friends to death.
