As you might imagine, faithful reader, Strider does not like to lose.Īfter convincing Strider to accompany her to the Games (and pretending to be her consort), Kaia finds out all the other Harpy teams are out to get her.

Kaia has been in an ongoing flirtation with Strider, keeper of the demon of Defeat. Imagine Kaia’s surprise when she is invited to participate in the next upcoming Harpy Games. Her sisters (including familiar faces Gwen and Bianka) are really the only Harpies that will speak to her. Kaia hasn’t really been on good terms with other Harpies since a youthful mistake wreaked havoc at the Harpy Games. What do you get when you cross a Harpy nicknamed Kaia the Disappointment, who happens to be headed for her equivalent of the Olympics (though totally unlike any Olympics imaginable), with a warrior who is host to the demon of Defeat?
