Purple threads. Amber tents. Golden mists. White gems. It's all rather colourful in White Palace.

Twenty years after their battle with SkullDigger, the Court is still waiting for certain members to return. Monshikka meets a young and strangely-familiar student.

Arrowsmith is dangerously ill with an ailment that may prevent his return to Dargoth in his next lifetime. Infamous sets out on a mission along with Monshikka and his new friend, and Sly, and ends up on a different quest of his own in another world.

Back home in Dargoth, all they can do is await his return and hope it doesn't come too late to help Arrowsmith with his problem.
