Feared and distrusted, Magpie is set back on the quest the Oaks have chosen for her. However, she hasn't the slightest clue where to start. She arrived at Riverton to seek guidance from Dr. Walker and the priests. Unfortunately, Dr Walker and a good friend had snuck out on an expedition in the frontier and ran into trouble, an issue Magpie had to help solve before she could address her own problems. Dealing with shady soldiers nearly got her killed, and the repercussions of the misadventure followed her back to the capital. Magpie slowly discovers her strengths as a falcon, while simultaneously learning to accept she can not survive without help. She joins forces with the Frontier Forces to pursue the criminal associates of a corrupt nobleman and they soon discover how easily predators can become prey. The Oaks are in trouble, and Magpie has sworn to protect them, but it's more than one woman can handle, no matter how sharp her talons.
