Viceroy and head of the Wind Clan, Wolf Who Rules had been able to guarantee the safety of everyone in his realm, but faced with an invasion of dragons, he has had to call in royal troops and relinquish his monopoly of Pittsburgh, which is stranded on Elfhome.

Meanwhile, Tinker strives to solve the mystery of a growing discontinuity in Turtle Creek. She's plagued with inexplicable nightmares that may hold the keys to Pittsburgh's future.
