Join your fellow squad mates, Hannah and Karen, as they dive into the first four chapters of Fourth Wing, re-experiencing the story through the lens of Iron Flame.

Hannah and Karen begin with a 'Scribe Report' (chapter summary) before crossing the parapet into the Rider's Quadrant for a deep dive into key moments, enriched with transformative insights from Iron Flame. They then stop by the Healer's Quadrant for a temperature check on the characters, favorite moments, and quotes. Finally, they take flight, exploring foreshadowing, theories, and lingering questions about all things Empyrean!
