"Clay's Tally has joined the Web of Stars, her degenerative issues finally solved with that bond. Teenaged Jon, and little Noor have also found sanctuary with DarkRiver, but the woman who found a way to free them is running out of time.

“Where do you think they've gone?' he said.
'Where what?' said Lady Ramkin, temporarily halted.
'The dragons. You know. Errol and his wi - female.'
