Dulsie Stryke doesn't care how much her uncle wants to see her, she doesn't want to leave Storm Cloud Colony for the Dwarven city of Drazkgar. Sky Sparkes very much cares about their grade for their Qualifying Quest, but that doesn't mean they want to cart a very large, very venomous, and very cranky cursed black widow spider all over the Central Continent. Leivarre just wants to live her days out as the afore-mentioned large, venomous, and cranky black widow. Thus, the three find themselves traipsing across the Central Continent of Noreidahe, forced to confront hard truths about themselves as well as the world around them. Meanwhile, a mysterious stalker has his own quest to complete.
