I · The Main Plot

Where We Start

It is still winter and everyone is on the move. Rags is heading north; Erin is trying to go home; Ryoka is in the northern city of Invrisil as Magnolia Reinhart's guest.

Major Plot Points & Spoilers

  1. Rags seeks allies against the Goblin Lord.
  2. Erin tries to bring cheer, and Christmas, back to the inn, and meets a number of people in the coldest part of the year.
  3. Ryoka must carefully win the good graces of Magnolia Reinhart, the 'Deadly Flower of the North'.
  4. The volume includes the story of Wistram Days, when Ceria and Pisces first meet at the Academy of Mages.

Where the Book Leaves Off

The publisher blurb states no cliffhanger and we have not read the text, so the exact final scene is unverified. Per the blurb, the volume follows a winter in which Rags seeks allies in the north, Erin tries to bring Christmas to the inn, and Ryoka works to win over Magnolia Reinhart in Invrisil. The blurb does not say how any of these threads resolve, so treat them as still in progress. The Wistram Days story of Ceria and Pisces at the Academy of Mages is also included.
