Caught between warring humans and demons, Flio comes up with a new plan to spark communication between the factions - selling them both the secret to his magic! (With some strings attached.) Meanwhile, all is not well back at the homestead! Balirossa and company struggle with culture shock as they reckon with the newcomer Wyne the Wyvern and her decidedly inhuman takes on life and death. Flio's constant search for understanding leads to the snow-covered mountain homeland of the wyverns themselves, where he will walk a mile in their giant, scaly feet. Will hope prevail, or will the border wall of biases stand firm?
