So, I thought I'd share the working synopsis for the 2nd book in my series, which is what I'll be drafting this November:

The Sea was once protected around the Rinta islands by the fleet of Queen Jioneeva, but word is creeping out that she has taken the mainland throne. The islands are weak without her, at least, the pirates know they are and are preparing to reclaim the islands they believe are their right.
Luckily, a ship is sailing out on Queen Jioneeva's behest to support the islands against the pirate threat. This ship carries five well-known and powerful magic users who call themselves The Magicians, and one young girl named Rowan who is charged with acting as ambassador from the mainland to the islands.
Staving off the pirates seems like an easy enough task for five users of magic, except the islands are rich in something the mainland is not: Nullifiers.
Can the Magicians hold their own against the pirates without magic? Is Rowan up to her task? Can all of them face their fears and make it back to Pela safely? Not if the Pirate Queen has anything to say...
