The chickens come home to roost. Except the chickens are stuck-up angels.
With the bossy Chipboard fully functional once more, Rahni Gazi and her companions expect things to go back to normal, even if normal happens to involve bottomless closets and being attacked by hummingbirds. If Rahni expects to be left in peace as she does her best to fight the traditionalists intent on returning the balance of good and evil to what it once was, she is sorely disappointed.
Hann still thinks she is an agent of darkness and remains intent on killing her. Kai doesn't think she is revolutionary enough and sees her as roadblock to be kicked aside. Most worrisome, Rahni's efforts to foil the plans of the traditionalists at the last Interstate Meeting have made King Wulfric angry enough to gather an army and start marching it toward her home. When they get word, Rahni and her friends rush back to Savay only to realize they have little chance of standing against the might of King Wulfric's army, especially as he's recruited other gullible monarchs and joined forces with the dubiously named Council of Light.
Rahni wracks her brains, pulls some strings and calls in all the favors that she has at her disposal but in the end, can do very little but sit tight and wait for the fight to come to her, something she is very much not used to.
