The text is comprised of excerpts from the fantasy novel Flight of the Nighthawks, which details the complex operations of the powerful organization known as the Conclave of Shadows as they face two major threats to their world, Midkemia. Central to the narrative is the magician Pug and his associates, who must research the Dasati invasion threat posed by the near-indestructible artifacts called the Talnoy. Simultaneously, Pug’s younger son, Caleb, is engaged in a dangerous intelligence operation within the Empire of Great Kesh, trying to halt a plot by the chaotic sorcerer Leso Varen. Varen has possessed the Emperor and utilized the assassin clan known as the Nighthawks to precipitate civil war between the royal princes, but his plan is foiled by the Conclave agents, including the youths Tad and Zane. The volume culminates in a magical confrontation in the Imperial court, where Pug and his allies successfully drive Varen’s presence out of the Emperor’s body, securing a momentary peace for Kesh.
