The rainy season has come to the Wheatfield...
As the residents of the Wheatfield work to prevent flooding, word comes that the Grand Wizard has escaped. The Wizard destroys the dike and causes the Wheatfield Village to flood. Peter rescues Dragonel from the flooding dungeon. Dragonel realizes the flooding will hurt the Hornets as well as the Wheatfield residents and finds herself in conflict with the Wizard; leading to a split amongst the Hornet Knights. The Wizard is defeated and Dragonel is, if not a friend, no longer an enemy of the Wheatfield.
