The demon didn't want to act against the relic's will though, so it chose to serve Kessel. In the meantime, Akar Kessel is joined by the demon Errtu, which desires the power of Crenshinibon more than anything else. When the time came close for the barbarian to set out free once again from Bruenor's captivity, the dwarf forged for him the magical warhammer Aegis-fang and entrusted him to Drizzt for some last lessons. His hard feelings against Bruenor, who forced him to live among the dwarves and work for him, are slowly replaced by affection and fondness. The second part of the book begins five years after the battle against the barbarians and focuses mainly on the character of Wulfgar. Kessel, with his new powers, began to gather allies. The powerlusting relic "guides" the mind of the human through dreams toward greater goals, like the conquest of Ten-Towns. He finds the lost relic known as Crenshinibon which gives him the power to survive and to build a tower Cryshal-Tirith. Meanwhile, in the Spine of the World, the wizard apprentice Akar Kessel is betrayed by some fellow wizards and left to die in the frozen land.
This part ends with Bruenor who spares the life of a young barbarian called Wulfgar whom he had met in battle. Only the efforts of the three heroes (with some help from Regis' magical gem) could persuade the leaders of Ten-Towns to join their forces against the common enemy, leading them to victory. The barbarian tribes of the North, guided by the two kings Beorg and the ruthless Heafstaag, have united to bring destruction over Ten-Towns, counseled by the betrayer deBernezan. The three heroes will play a main role in the upcoming events. The first part of the book introduces the cold land of Icewind Dale, the Ten-Towns, and the main characters: the drow ranger Drizzt Do'Urden, who has chosen to live in the surface world instead of in the evil and ruthless Underdark the dwarf clan leader Bruenor Battlehammer, who was forced to abandon his home of Mithral Hall with his clan and the halfling Regis, who settled down in Ten-Towns where he hopes that the eye of his ex-guildmaster couldn't reach him.
