Plot
The book starts with Conor having a dream. He describes what he is, and then a voice calls out. Tellun tells Conor that it is an end of and era and he needs him here. He then realizes that everything was on fire, and that his friends needed help. He saw his Meilin fighting Greencloaks, Rollan was fighting a giant snake, and Abeke was swarmed by Conquerors. He tried calling out for Briggan, but he realized he was in passive state. But he looked at for too long and the tattoo disappeared from his arm. A giant gorilla tries to attack him but he falls off a cliff and catches the ledge. Then an enormous eagle, which is assumed to be Halawir, appears above him. He sees Tarik on it, and he is happy. But when tries to take his hand, it turned out to be Shane. He withdrew his hand and Conor fell. The next chapter starts with Rollan looking out of a window of Greenhaven Castle. He went to Abeke looking out over the landscape. He thinks that it feels like yesterday that Shane stole the talismans, but was actually few weeks. He keeps thinking they have to act fast, and rescue Meilin. He yearns to tell her the newest joke and make her laugh, only to realize she wasn't there. He starts thinking about the weather. The weather has been odd, because The Evertree is being disrupted. Even the animals were acting odd. He tell Essix to go hunt them, but she didn't want to. He later tells jokes with Abeke to be a Rain Dancer and dance, but Abeke didn't laugh, so he let it go. He then says that Olvan says that they should be able to set soon. Abeke asks if there is any new messages, probably waiting for her father. They sent stormy petrels to get help from other Greencloaks. Abeke then says Tarik's cloak looks good on him.
