Having left the Stone Forest, Adelaide accompanies Neville to the thriving city of Glendale where both hope to start a new life. However, the city has its own problems in the form of unemployment, gang violence, drugs, and an uncertain political future. In the city they meet Winston, a Captain of the Watch caught up in the city's shifting political climate, and Chamberlain Mayne Gordon, an unscrupulous civil servant maneuvering for his own gain. Amidst a city already smoldering, the four attempt to do the best with what they have, but the return of the feared and hated Master of the Hunt threatens to set matters alight. Adelaide seeks answers to her true bestial nature, Neville seeks work amid fierce competition, Winston seeks to keep his beloved city from tearing itself to pieces, and Gordon seeks power and fortune. Can any of them survive, let alone build a life?
