Feet of Clay
In its hour of need, the Well World's guardians had been neutralized. Nathan Brazil was shipwrecked on a desert island with a seemingly harmless girl - but his contact with her had allowed his mind to be invaded, his will sapped, and his mission forgotten.

But the Well could allow nothing to stop the guardians' journey for long. For the Well of Souls was only a machine; it needed the Watchers to handle events and circumstances beyond its sophisticated programming. And so it set plans in motion to jolt its champions back into the game.
