Kurzbeschreibung
Coryn, Soren, and the Band preside over a new Golden Age of the Great Tree under the subtle influence of the Ember. All seems well, but beneath the prosperity of peace Coryn is tortured by the suspicion that his evil mother, Nyra, is a hagsfiend and that his own blood carries the haggish taint. He wanders afar searching for the truth from hagsfiends themselves - putting the Great Tree in danger. Soren & the Band follow their new king to strange parts to guard him from the consequences of his obsession.
Meanwhile back at the tree a strange new cult has grown up around the Ember. Some of the Guardians have forsaken the simple, honest values of the tree for pomp, ritual, rank and ornament. Otulissa speaks out against these changes and is jailed. A most unexpected friend flies into the night to find Soren, Coryn and the Band and warn them of what is transpiring at the tree. They return, release Otulissa and set things to right.
