Summary of Fourth Wing By Rebecca Yarros - Willie M. Joseph
CHAPTER ONE
Conscription Day is the deadliest day of the year in Navarre, with thousands of twenty-year-olds waiting outside the gate to enter their chosen quadrant for service. The narrator is preparing for the Riders Quadrant, the chance to become one of the elite, and is being ignored by the guards. Mira, the only woman on the Continent, raises her voice to the general, but the general curses from behind her desk. The narrator grabs onto the back of the crimson-upholstered couch to catch their balance, but Mira is already trying to save them. Lieutenant Sorrengail and his sister Mira are meeting for the first time in years.
Mira is tall, with strong muscles and golden-brown hair, and she carries the same arrogance and conviction that she belongs in the sky as her mother. Mira is a younger version of their mother, and she is tall, with strong muscles and golden-brown hair. Mira carries the same arrogance and conviction that she belongs in the sky as her mother, and her traitorous body makes her embarrassingly vulnerable. Mira is twenty years old and is the daughter of a rider. Her mother tells her that if she dares enter the Scribe Quadrant today, she will be ripped out by her braid and put on the parapet herself.
Mira argues that her father wouldn't want this, but Mom tells her that she loved her father, but he's dead. Mira's father was a scribe and her mother was a rider. Mira is arguing with her mother about sending Violet into the Riders Quadrant, which is tantamount to a death sentence. Mira argues that Violet is not strong enough and that she is not tall enough to mount a dragon big enough to keep her alive in a battle. Mom looks at Mira and tells her that Violet is capable of surviving the Riders Quadrant.
Mira cringes as the temperature in the room plummets due to Mom's storm-wielding signet power. Mom's words are soft puffs of steam in the frigid office. Mira and her daughter, Candidate Sorrengail, have been together for months. Mira praises her for her speed and agility during the entrance exam, but warns that she won't get any special treatment for being her daughter. Mira then leads the candidate to her room, where all her personal items have been packed into crates.
Mira then leads the candidate down the stone staircase and through the hallways to her room, where all her personal items have been packed into crates. Mira then leads the candidate to her room, where her personal items have been packed into crates. Mira is trying to talk Brennan out of joining the Riders Quadrant, but Brennan refuses. Mira is carrying too much and her boots are a death trap, so she has a set of rubberbottomed rider boots made for her just in case. Mira tries to save her favorite collection of dark fables, but Brennan tells her she can only take what she can carry.
Mira is shrewd, cunning, and cruel, and the woman is threatening to kill her if she does not listen. Violet's sister tells her to ditch her books and become a rider instead of a scribe. Violet chooses to be a pain in the ass and gets changed into a tight-fitting black shirt, leather pants, and a vest-style corset. Her sister explains that the clothes are tailored to her size and that they keep it from rubbing. Violet feels like an imposter, but her sister assures her that this is what she is doing.
The protagonist is wearing a combination of leather and a fabric that covers her from collarbone to waist, with hidden sheaths sewn diagonally along the rib cage for her daggers. Mira then braids her hair into a crown with Teine's scales sewn in, which Mira warns is a liability in sparring and battle. Mira also warns that her hair fades out to silver, making her a giant target. The protagonist's eyes are indecisive, with varying blues and ambers that never seem to favor either actual color. Violet and Mira are discussing the rules of the Riders Quadrant.
Mira emphasizes the importance of being observant and reading the Codex. She also emphasizes the importance of wearing armor and daggers, as well as wearing the sheaths down her thighs. Violet also mentions that the dragon scales are not cheating and that there is only survival and death once they climb the turret. The bell chimes and it is almost time for the battle. Violet and Mira are on their way to the main gate of the war college, where they will find Dain Aetos.
It has been a year since they last saw each other, and they have missed each other's soft brown eyes and the way he laughs. Mira tells them to find Dain Aetos, who they haven't seen for a year, and they are excited to see him again. The narrator and Mira arrive at Basgiath, a fortress built into the side of Basgiath Mountain. They pass the entrance exam and join the crowd of candidates for military service. The narrator is free to take any of the first-years they want to bed, but not the second- or third-years.
The atmosphere is tense with anticipation as Mira leads the narrator along the worn cobblestone path to the southern turret. The majority of the crowd moves to line up at the base of the northern turret, while some head towards the gate behind them. The entrance to the Riders Quadrant is a fortified door at the base of the tower. Mira and the narrator join the riders' line, crossing the river-bottomed valley to the Riders Quadrant. Mira tells the narrator to keep their eyes on the stones ahead of them and don't look down.
The crowd of thousands behind them has separated into their chosen quadrants, and Mira encourages the narrator to focus on forging alliances. There are only two candidates ahead of them, a woman with a full pack and a muscular blond man with a woman crying over him. The narrator is surprised to find a relic from the rebellion on the wrist of a separatist's kid. Mira tells the narrator that Xaden Riorson is a thirdyear and will kill the narrator if he finds out who they are. He has risen to the rank of wingleader and has sworn allegiance to Navarre.
The narrator warns the narrator to stay away from Xaden Riorson and to find Dain once they get across the parapet. Captain Fitzgibbons and Mira Sorrengail meet in the Riders Quadrant. Mira is Mira Sorrengail's sister, Violet, who will be a first-year. Captain Fitzgibbons is impressed by Mira's heroism and her sister's bravery. Mira and Captain Fitzgibbons sign the rolls of the Riders Quadrant and Mira leads them to the open door into the turret.
Mira assures Captain Fitzgibbons that Mira knows the way and they begin to climb the hundreds of stairs that lead to their possible deaths. Rhiannon Matthias and Dylan are two candidates for the only quadrant at Basgiath that doesn't accept conscripts. They are excited to be here, as this is the only quadrant that doesn't accept conscripts and only volunteers. Rhiannon is excited to ride a dragon, but Dylan's parents have been begging him to change his mind for months. They are determined to survive to graduation.
CHAPTER TWO
The narrator is praying to Zihnal, the god of luck, to ensure they will not die today. Rhiannon gives her name to the rider at the opening of the parapet, and the narrator responds with Violet Sorrengail. It is the last time Dylan's name will be written anywhere but his stone, and the narrator is reminded of their mother, General Sorrengail, who is the commander here. Sorrengail is riding a horse on a turret in a windy environment. He takes the lone step up onto the parapet and grips the stone wall as another gust of wind hits.
He is mocked by the candidate behind him, Jack Barlowe, who is going to be a wingleader one day. Fear shoots through his veins and he bolts onto the parapet, leaving the safety of the turret. Xaden orders him to keep his eyes on the stones ahead of him and don't look down. Mira's advice echoes in her head, but it is hard to heed when every step could be her last. She throws her arms out for balance and takes measured mini strides, but with the wind, rain, and two-hundred-foot drop, it is difficult to stay calm.
She focuses on the path ahead of her to keep her posture upright and her pulse skyrockets. She recite facts, logic, and history to keep her mind from turning around and walking back to the turret. She passes the painted line that marks halfway, but the wind slams into her and she flails her arms. She drops to the parapet, holding on to the edges and crouching so she doesn't lose her footing. The narrator is at knifepoint in Navarre, where Tyrrendor was the last of the bordering provinces to join the alliance and swear fealty to King Reginald.
Rhiannon is still ahead of the narrator, while Poromiel is known for its textiles, grain, and gemstones. The Trade Agreement of Resson ensures the exchange of meat and lumber from Navarre for the cloth and agriculture within Poromiel four times a year at the Athebyne outpost on the border of Krovla and Tyrrendor. Jack is stalled at just after the quarter mark, and the narrator must keep moving to see the sunrise. Sorrengail is on a quest to reach the southwest of the Continent. He is approached by Jack, who throws the scrawny candidate from the parapet.
Sorrengail panics on the slick, narrow path and slips off the parapet. He stumbles and falls, and his left leg dangles off the edge of the bridge from hell. He makes the gut-twisting error of looking down and falls to join the river gushing through the valley more than two hundred feet below. He braces his weight on the slick stones to hold and swings his left leg up. Sorrengail is running from Jack, a cadet who thinks he is the weakest link in the wing.
He is determined to get to the other side of the quadrant, where the rest of the murderers are waiting. Jack mocks Sorrengail, saying he can't carry a full rucksack and that he is a mistake. Sorrengail is determined to get to the other side of the quadrant, where the rest of the murderers are waiting. Jack offers to help Sorrengail out, but Sorrengail refuses. There are only a dozen feet left to the outside of the citadel's enormous walls.
The narrator is riding a horse in a fortress carved into the mountain in an L-shaped formation of tall stone buildings, built to withstand fire. They are secured on both sides by the walls and run the last ten feet to the courtyard, where two riders wait. The narrator rips a dagger from its sheath and Jack roars in frustration. The narrator recites from the Codex that it is unlawful for a rider to cause harm while in a quadrant formation or in the supervisory presence of a superior-ranking cadet, as it will diminish the efficacy of the wing. The narrator adjusts their stance just in case Jack doesn't reconsider.
Violet Sorrengail is a third-year student riding a horse. She is complimented on her maneuver and her name is Jack Barlowe. The male rider on her right is not wearing a cloak and is promising retribution. Cadet Sorrengail
