Though afraid of what might happen, Kara goes along on a mission to help rid the kingdom of dragons so that the people won't go hungry from loss of livestock and no more men will be killed trying to fight them. Kara is unsure of her gift, but hopes she can become a hero to her people.
Only too late does she remember being saved by a dragon in early childhood. When the very dragon that saved her is killed as a result of her first calling attempt, Kara realizes the evils of what she's being made to do.

When Kaeldra, Jeorg, and a harper are captured, Lyf finds herself responsible for the draclings they'd been looking for, as well as for Kealdra's son.
Ever since the illness that she was saved from by dragon's milk as a baby, Lyf is seen treated as weaker and more immature than other girls. She is afraid when no-one is around to take care of her, but soon finds strength in taking care of others. As she continues her journey, she realizes that maybe she isn't as helpless as she's been lead to believe.
