In the wilds of Britannia, Cait considers her next move, while Ania and Willa broker a meeting between Veran and Aulus.

Aulus struggles to remain in control now that Hemple is on the scene. The Druids are splintered by the betrayal of the Chosen One.

Aulus hears Widicus's concerns about the behaviour of the new arrivals. Cait and Antedia continue their partnership.

Aulus returns from his trip to the Underworld. Willa reveals that if Cait secures the Spear of The Silver Dawn then the tribes will be united.

Cait and her band of travellers strike a deal with Hella. Still under Hemple's hex, Ania returns and leads the gang on a dangerous path.

Cait is shocked by the revelation that a traitor is in their midst. Hemple, still with Amena at the Villa, plans another feast to satisfy Lokka's hunger.

Cait and her band continue their quest to reach Lucius because of his knowledge of the Spear. Hemple is furious that Veran seems to have got the better of her.

Still searching for Lucius and his knowledge of the Spear, Cait takes the fight to the redoubt, and to all those who are waiting for her.
