I haven't read Flyte yet, so I'm not sure what this story was setting up or providing more detail on. This was a cute and interesting little interlude. But Marcia Overstrand and Septimus Heap step in to save him. In their excitement about the prestige that will result, the witches decide to nab a young boy to be their slave. And we get to see the dynamics of the Port Witch Coven who is promised the Darke Toad as a reward for their help. Fortunately it's Halloween, so his movements go unremarked. He manages to clothe his bones enough to get around, much to Simon's disgust, but they seek out help from the Port Witch Coven for a more permanent spell, so DomDaniel can complete his nefarious plans. Simon Heap is now following orders from DomDaniel who is in some pretty awful shape, but not about to let death stop him.
