On a snowy winter's night, in the home of snow and ice live, known as the Northern Kingdoms of the Owl World, there was a night where a full moon was high in the sky, and the Schana Royal Family was rejoicing the hatching of a new member. This wasn't just a new member; it was a new generation of the Snowy Owl Royal Family of Schana that has ruled over the North since centuries ago. The young owlet is the child of the young rulers King Arin and Queen Nynia and the little white, with little grey marks and snowflakes on her downy coat, who has shining dark blue eyes owlet's name is Princess Lydea Schana. Her family of aunts, uncles and grandparents are here along with her parents to witness this event and to welcome her into the family.

However, this time of happiness, celebration and joy was very, very short. Only after a few hours after the beautiful young owlet was born, the evil group that have been known to bring doom and destruction, the Pure Ones, attack the once peaceful Kingdom after five years of peace.

It has been five tears after the Battle of the Ice Claws and their defeat and The Pure Ones are after the throne of the Northern Kingdom, once again. They have tried to take them down before and had failed, since they have always found a way to take them down. But this time, five years later from that fateful battle, they have grown in numbers and have developed their army stronger.

The Northern Army had deployed to try and defeat the threat that is now against them once again, but they needed help desperately. The Guardians of Ga'Hoole were chasing the Pure Ones anyway from an earlier attempt to find out if they are back and now have found their attack and are working to help the Northern Army. Knowing how to defeat them, the Guardians had an advantage, seeing as since the dawn of the everlasting war, they have always found a way to defeat them but since the wars and the Battle of the Ice Claws, Pure Ones have found a way to improve their tactics since the last time they have thought.

Lyze of Kiel, a military legend and General of the Guardians and his protégé and boss, King Boron, the ruler of the Great Tree, had to act fast, but it had been too late to improvise a plan.

Metalbeak, the leader of the hellish Tyto owl based organisation known as the Pure Ones, had a new general helping with the plight. The youngling, which has been deemed with having exceptional promise and has special abilities, is only the age of old and grizzled leader, who wears a helmet to conceal the mutilation and many scars that was left after a the Battle of the Ice Claws, that was only five years ago, trusts the youngling he appointed as general.

Their attack is succeeding; the bloodbath coup claims many lives as blood paints the once white and pure snow red. Metalbeak promises his young general the leadership of the Northern Kingdom. She now uses this motive for her army not to fail.

The young general's name is Nyra and she is a pledged Pure One since her childhood as she was the only female that made it to be in the ranks. This young, determined, eclipse born she-owl had found a way into the Northern Palace's Forge Furnaces and caused an explosion within the palace core, as she wanted that prize her leader was offering.

The Palace started to be shaken to pieces and it started to collapse. All the caves, that make the palace, are collapsing in as the whole mountain it is in starts to crumble. When this started collapsing on top of them, the Pure Ones made the move onto the Schana Royals that were escaping the crumbling palace. Not even Lyze of Kiel could stop them from doing this. They tried protecting them, but Nyra's well-trained brethren took the Schana Royalists down as they were not going to give up until they got the Northern Kingdom Throne.

Guardians moved to fight the Pure Ones to help other people in the Kingdom to at least escape, but for some reason, the war wasn't over yet.
