Summary
A few years have passed since the events in 'The Stargazer and the Toolmaker', and all is well in Lakeside, as well as in Rodne and R'dek's (and Spitt's) cave, but winds of change are coming. They come first with the arrival of strangers to Lakeside, who carry the most terrible news. The Raiders, scourge of R'dek's childhood, are coming, and nothing will stop them.
To survive the raiders, changes must be made to Lakeside, and changes come to its residents, and to Rodne and R'dek as well, but the most difficult change of all must come to the Raider's leader, Shef'hred. Captured by the farmers and fisherfolk of Lakeside, he must learn what it means to give up the life he knew, and still retain his honor.
