Now that Tag and Skyla have found Blaze's firehawk family they would like to return home to Perodia, even if it means leaving their friend behind; but in order to find the magic that will open a new portal they must first brave a mysterious underground maze where the walls are constantly shifting--and when they do find their way home there is a deadly surprise waiting for them.

Perodia is threatened by Thorn, a powerful vulture, who is using magic to spread a terrible darkness--but when a young owl named Tag, and his best friend, the squirrel Skyla, rescue a golden egg from Thorn's Tiger bats they may have found the key to Perodia's salvation: the last firehawk, guardian of the ember stone.

Their magical map is leading Tag, Skyla, and Blaze closer and closer to The Shadowlands, Thorn's territory--but now the Ember Stone has fallen into the well-named Lullaby Lake, which is defended by fairies who sing intruders to sleep, and the friends must figure out a way to convince the "nixies" to help them retrieve it before Thorn gets his claws on it.

Tag, Skyla, and Blaze are on a new quest to find Blaze's family, and Thorn's twin brother, Claw (who claims to be nothing like his evil brother), has offered to guide them to the mysterious Golden Temple where the firehawks were last seen; but the jungle is full of dangers and Tag is not sure they can trust Claw--and even if they find the firehawks, will that help them return to their home in Perodia?

Tag and Skyla have returned to Perodia to begin their warrior training, but when their friend Blaze returns with troubling news that her mother has gone missing, Tag and Skyla's warrior skills are quickly put to the test.
