With Errtu defeated, Crenshinibon has been recovered. Wulfgar has been saved from his torment. Regis has gotten his three breakfasts. The Companions of the Hall should stand reunited and victorious—but all is not well for Drizzt and his friends. Wulfgar, while free, struggles with anger and bloodlust. Regis’s ruby pendant—once the property of his old master—seems to be a magnet for all things evil.
