With his parents dead and nothing left for him in Alagaesia, Prentis and his dragon leave to find a life elsewhere. They stumble upon Camp Half-Blood after a long, tiring journey. Soon they settle into a slightly more peaceful life among the demigods, but the campers are curious. Curiosity he can handle until danger comes to threaten his new family, one he thought long gone.

A new student appears at Hogwarts in the middle of the fall semester. He's quiet, resigned, and surrounded by inconsistencies. The Marauders take it upon themselves to "befriend" the new guy. Yet as they dig deeper into Meilyr's past and where he comes from, things just get complicated. All Meilyr wants to do is get home, a task that proves more difficult than he ever imagined.
