The Aldevar have always been there, even unknown to the humans who survived the cataclysms thousands of years ago. The legendary Velvoleth, a collection of enchanted dragon-bone flutes, have appeared once again, and the race is on to find them. Ganeedon, one of the last two of the mystical Nymthindill, wants to keep them from Carlaneen, who only wants to break their spell and control the dragons imprisoned within.The key Velvolesk, Sheribeth, chose young Della to unite them, but was captured by the forged minions of Carleneen and imprisoned in the Pinnacle, an under-the-mountain fortress where beings are being combined to forge an army.
