In Artimè, each child is taught to cultivate their creative abilities and learn how to use them magically, weaving spells through paintbrushes and musical instruments. Upon arrival at the destination where he expected to be eliminated, however, Alex discovers a stunning secret-behind the mirage of the "death farm" there is instead a place called Artimè. Thirteen-year-old Alex tries his hardest to be stoic when his fate is announced as Unwanted, even while leaving behind his twin, Aaron, a Wanted. The strong, intelligent Wanteds go to university, Necessaries go to work in the fields, and the worthless, artistic Unwanteds get sent to their graves. Every year in Quill there is a tradition of sorting thirteen year olds into three categories: Wanted, Necessary and Unwanted.
