A seemingly normal day at the clinic turns strange during a visit from a magical creature making wild prophecies–when he usually just predicts the weather, helps find lost household items and announces the arrival of the River Guardian’s otter messengers!
Nan and Clarion discover something in the water is making river creatures, both magical and normal, behave in odd ways: beavers building elaborate wood houses teetering on the edge of collapse, kelpies casting aside their magical disguises when trying lure people to the water, and ice swans making ear-piercing mating calls that freeze chunks of water solid–all similar to the creature at the clinic. The creature’s owner may have something to do with this whimsical madness, so Nan and Clarion must quickly work together to brew a solution and set things right!
