New Game in Town
Rowan stumbles across evidence of a group of renegade wizards and sorcerers who are positioning themselves to work against the White Council (they view themselves as revolutionaries). Still trying to atone for her mistakes, Rowan uses her reputation as a troublemaker to infiltrate their group and bring them down. Gerhardt learns that Rowan’s cover will be blown unless she can be extracted from the take-down situation quickly. Unwilling to reveal himself to the White Council, he calls in the Sweepers (members of a special police task force) and has Rowan arrested and removed before the White Council raid takes place. When the Wardens arrive, the renegades find that many of the components for their wards – bought at great expense from Amadan – are fake, and quickly fall to White Council forces.
