Summary
Karlach Cliffgate is a junior and was the former captain of the Avernus High hockey team. Tav is a junior and captain of Frozenfar High hockey team, Avernus’ rival. After choking at the semifinal of the regional playoffs last year, Karlach abandoned her team with her tail between her legs, and as a result, is a newly enrolled student at Frozenfar this year. Despite her setback, Karlach still holds a reputation as a hockey protege, and everyone at Frozenfar treats her like a celebrity, but Tav isn’t so impressed. If Karlach wants a place on Tav’s team, she’s going to have to prove she’s still got a fire in her.
Despite the former rivals’ animosity, Karlach wins Tav over, and the two of them grow closer than expected. Tav learns that Karlach’s departure from the Avernus High hockey team isn’t all that it seemed. As the Frozenfar Barbarians and the Avernus Devils go head to head on the ice, it becomes apparent that Karlach’s former coach, Zariel, traumatized her star forward, and Karlach narrowly escaped with a secret that could potentially burn her alive and everyone else if left unchecked.
