Storm King’s Thunder (Dungeons & Dragons)
The story begins with a brief prologue at sea, where Linsha Majere examines the body of a dead blue dragon and concludes that it was killed by fire magic.
The story then goes back to the late Autumn of 10 AC, in which the Knights of Solamnia – who have now returned from their exile – and the people of Sanction make preparations for the ceremony to form a new government. The novel begins with Tasslehoff Burrfoot and Riverwind preparing for the journey to Xak Tsaroth, where they intend to find the Disks of Mishakal.
Meanwhile, Raistlin Majere, disguised as a hooded figure (later revealed to be Dalamar), is interrogated by Lord Gunthar Uth Wistan on suspicion of being a mage. Raistlin claims to be a follower of the true gods – and that magic returned when the gods died. He later sees Dalamar, who plans for Raistlin to travel with Caramon to Xak Tsaroth rather than be assigned as Lord Gunthar’s squire.
It is then revealed that Tanis Half-Elven and Laurana Kanan have been traveling separately since the end of Dragons of Winter Night in search of each other. They are reunited at Port Bali in Flotsam, where they meet up with Gilthanas and Silvara Moonflower. The group proceeds to Sanction for the ceremony.
