This lecture discusses the science fiction and fantasy author, Ursula K. Leguin's book, Tales From Earthsea, the fifth of six Earthsea books

It focuses specifically on the story "Dragonfly", and focuses specifically on the two crises at Roke Isle depicted and partly resolved in the story.

The second is a longer-brewing crisis, stemming from the absence of an archmage, the king Lebannen having crowned himself, dragons coming eastward, and the Master Summoner Thorion attempting to take power over Roke
