Summary:
Alec Lightwood is prophesized to bring about the end of the demonic wars before he turns thirty. This lands him with a curse when he’s only four days old, one that haunts his life thereafter. If Magnus Bane hadn’t intervened when he did, however – the outcome would’ve been much, much worse.
–
Before the curse can bind itself to Alec’s bright, fledgling soul, however, Magnus seizes the dark magic and turns it into something softer; something kinder.
“I don’t have the power to prevent this evil from touching your heart, little angel,” he murmurs, looking at this helpless creature’s terrified face and how it’s turned red with the exertion of his frightened screams. An aching tenderness pushes out the air from Magnus’ lungs. “But I can make it so that when the darkness reaches you, instead of death you will fall into a deep sleep. It will give you time to be founded by love, which is the only thing that can set you free.”
