Saga of Menyoral: The Service

Since becoming Squire to Vandis Vail, Dingus has had the best -- and worst -- year of his life. The Knights of Air, still reeling from the slaughter last summer, converge on Knightsvalley for the annual Longday Moot, which includes the Qualification Trials for Knighthood.

Dingus's nerves are on the breaking point regarding the Trials, which he desperately wants to pass, but Vandis isn't concerned. Besides, the Head has his own worries, given the growing rumors about his personal life, a demanding Duke, and disturbing news from Muscoda.

Krakus's frustration with Lech pushes him ever more deeply into the world of Section One, and he finds fulfillment in teaching. When Lech lashes out, it opens an irreparable rift between the two Brothers...and sends Krakus back into the Queen of Heaven's service.
