Now, Kait's found the Mirror but has been shipwrecked. Ry Sabir, another shapeshifter with whom she shares a psychic bond, has followed her. When Ry catches up with Kait, she resists his allure only by keeping in mind that he's a hereditary enemy. One good Dragon, Solander the Reborn, opposes the evil Dragons, and the prophetic Secret Texts insist he'll triumph. Eventually, though, Kait receives irrefutable proof of Solander's death.
