Flesh and Stone This issue picks up right after the last issue , with a great splash page of a gargantuan Spyrus (in the form of a stone golem) towering over the party while lesser golems attack. The mages combine their power to keep the monsters at bay. Spyranus then manipulates this demi-plane to split the party up. Myrella and Par-Salian find themselves falling down a huge canyon. Quick thinking on Myrella's part allows her to cast a Feather Fall spell in enough time. As the two begin to climb up the rocky walls, Par-Salian mentions that while these events are real, this is also considered her Test of High Sorcery. Myrella resolves to succeed, thereby earning the white robes she believes is her destiny. Elsewhere Kal and Goldmoon are trapped in a ragging river. At first Kal tries to hold on the cleric and clutch a stray branch, till it breaks under the river current tugging against the two. Before the two get swept under, Goldmoon is able to cast a spell to part the river and al...

The Test This issue starts off with Myrella wandering around the ruins of Neraka, specifically the Temple of Takhisis. She's not sure how she got there, but she soon hears the cry of someone trapped under some rubble. Poking around she uncovers the dark elf Kalthanan. As Myrella questions Kal, they are suddenly attacked by a pair of magic wielding draconians and then confronted by another draconian who reveals himself to be the red mage Az-araz-ar. Az then attacks Myrella and Kal destroys the red robe mage. Meanwhile in another dimension, Par-Salian and Ladonna discusses with Riverwind and Goldmoon what's going on. It's revealed that they were searching for "the lost tower of high sorcery" to retrieve it's ancient magics for all wizards.

Through the Eyes of Time This issue starts off with Myrella, Riverwind and Goldmoon on horseback discussing Raistlin. While Myrella sees the archmage as the personification of evil, while Goldmoon attempts to show the tragic side of Raistlin. Through her recounting of Raistlin's life, Goldmoon even draws parallels between the black robe mage and Myrella. Meanwhile, on some other plane of existence, Par-Salian is in restraints while being confronted by the spirit of a dead mage, bound to a lost tower of high sorcery. Back on Krynn, the three continue their discussion until they hear what seems to be the sound of a person crying out for help. Myrella recklessly rushes toward the sound only to be attacked by a pack of keches, which are handily defeat by the three travelers. Afterward, Goldmoon chides Myrella for her recklessness and warns that magic abilities only amplify flaws if the mage doesn't confront them. Once again, she compares Myrella to Raistlin, and they own quests for...

Lost and Found This issue is the beginning of a new story. It opens with two mages (one in white robes, the other in black) in some weird bizarre realm with screaming mouths embedded in floating mountains and giant eyeballs floating in murky dark rivers. The two are revealed to be Par-Salian and Ladonna, and they appear to have found something called the "The Lost Tower of High Sorcery". From out of the tower, strange strands of blue shot out and grab the two mages. As they are pulled into the tower, Par-Salian cries out. Just then, Myrella (last seen in " Raistlin's Pawn ") wakes up from a nightmare, screaming. She and Gnatch talk about the dream and come to the conclusion that it's just her nervousness at her upcoming Test of High Sorcery, which she is in route to Wayreth to take. Gnatch and Myrella also talk about Kalthanian, and it's revealed that neither has seen him in the two years since the end of the war (when the "Raistlin's Pawn"...
