Drizzt continues to run from Dove Falconhand and her companions. Roddy McGristle, still holding a grudge for the death of his dog and the damage he caused to himself, continues to blame the dark elf for the murder of the Thistledown family. After saving their lives from an attack by vicious rock giants, Dove no longer believes that Drizzt is guilty, and takes her group back home. The elf Kellindil stays behind to watch over Drizzt and ensure he survives in the wild surface alone.
Drizzt experiences winter for the first time, the changes of the seasons not something that takes place in the Underdark. When Spring comes, Drizzt meets a blind ranger, Montolio Debrouchee, who will change the drow's life forever. Montolio shares with Drizzt the name of the goddess he has been following all his life, but did not know her name: Mielikki. It is not long before trouble returns to the drow, as his enemies combine forces with those of Montolio and attack his sacred grove.
