Ember, the blood of eleven chiefs, is starting her journey as a chiefstess. It is hard for a young cub to find her place and style as a leader. Especially when she is one of the youngest in the tribe, and the elders are challenging her every move. Ember has to learn to lead, to count on her tribemates, and to play on all their strengths. Redlance can grow them a safe space to sleep for the night, and Monshade is a strong huntress.
In the new forest, Ember can feel traces of dark magic. Magic that originates from the black snake. One of her creations is attacking the Wolfriders. They have to be quick, and can they beat this monster the same way they did Madcoil? or do they need to cum up with a new plan? This is the first of Winnowills monsters the Wolfriders meet, but it will not be the last. Leetah's pep talk to Ember at the end of the issue is well-needed for some motivation for what lies ahead.

In this episode, we are accompanied by Viva from the USA. She has some special memories with Shard 13. Therefore we were so excited to discuss this issue with her. Do you also have a favorite or special issue you want to discuss with us here on the podcast, feel free to reach out to us, we would love to have you as our guest! <3
Sometimes the easiest is simply the best. Which is something Two-Edge teaches the elves. Do not get fooled by something being too easy. A more difficult passage might lead you straight back to where you started. Which is exactly what happens with the elves. We see the benefits of having several species in a group. Everyone can participate to make this passage easier and faster for everyone.
A heartbreaking moment between Strongbow and Shuna sparks Viva's love for Elfquest. Listen to this episode to find out why!

Shuna has managed to gather some men to start a rebellion, but some of them are getting skeptical of her intentions when they realize she is a girl. Luckily for Shuna and the elves, she manages to convince them, and the rebellion is a fact. Even though the rebellion is a positive thing, it also makes it harder for the elves to make progress toward the palace pieces.
Strongbow is struggling to keep his two Go-Backs out of fights and trouble. Auroree is struggling to keep her troll and healer from fighting each other. A fight that started because Flam could not resist the smell of gold. Venka can no longer resist the urge to send for her dad. And Winnowill is finally shoving her true skin to the guards.
After many fights and some victories, we end this episode by leaving some human kids alone in a dark, dusty basement.

The piece hounds aka the monsters are let loose, but it turns out they are not as smart as we first assumed. They are hunting the elves, but the elves manage to escape, even the two elves left behind to distract the hounds manage to survive.
After Two-Edge's last game failed he created a new one. He really is the mastermind, but what is his endgame? Is he on anyone's side? Or is he again playing his own game for his own amusement?
At least Venka is safe and healing, and Rayekis looking for her. Two-Edge has really created a labyrinth. We see a tower, within a tower within a tower, which means he has a lot of space to cover to find Venka.

It turns out Ekuar has used almost all the energy in his body to create an escape for the elves. There is barely any left for his heart to beat. Without a rockshaper, the elves are forced above ground. The best magic users within the group decide to try to get the scrolls from a chamber within a chamber, in a tower within a tower.
They partly succeed, but only half of the magic users return to the rest of the group. One of the ones left behind is badly hurt and we do not know where to find her, but she is still alive.
Winnowill is forced to show her true skin to the Djun. Seeing other elves with stronger magic than his magicmaker, the Djun is getting afraid for his power. To make sure he is still the most powerful, he is making it illegal to believe that someone else than him is the most powerful.
