After resolving a major source of tension in the Winfiel Kingdom, Col and Myuri have certainly earned their rest. Their respite doesn't last for very long though because a messenger has come looking for the Twilight Cardinal with news about a conference eighty years in the making. Their destination will be the city of learning and books where there seems to be an uproar surrounding...another wolf girl?!
For the first time in almost a century, the Church is planning to hold an ecumenical council, or so say some reform-minded fellows who dearly want the Twilight Cardinal to attend. While Col attempts to find out if such a tremendous assembly will actually happen and deliberates on whether he should go, he and Myuri venture to the academic city of Aquent on the mainland to secure much-needed printing materials. It doesn't take long before they catch wind of a conflict that splits the city in two, and at the center of it all is someone who calls herself the Wisewolf!
