This story picks up where the epilogue of The Warden and the Wolf King leaves off, so be sure you have read all of the Wingfeather Saga before continuing! :)

Thank you so much for reading! I've tried to make this as canon-compatible as possible, so if you find any problematic errors, please let me know so I can fix them!
Andrew Peterson's song "The Dark Before the Dawn" helped inspire this story as well :)
Also I heard this one this week and thought it was very fitting: https://youtu.be/2pcidfoztEo?si=kYndcNf3gxZmYTa4
