However, the book that grants immortality is falling apart, and the Adderhead is once again afraid of the White Women of Death. In order to fix the book, the Adderhead captures all the children in the kingdom and forces them to work in his silver mines, unless Mo gives himself up. With Dustfinger gone and now Mo in danger, is there anyone who can save this doomed story?
