"In the murky depths of Louisiana's bayous, a traditional Cajun duel known as a Bat-tie transforms Nitro's destiny." Nitro finds himself in the arms of disaster after a ferocious attack from a swarm of bats, all in the name of utilizing the creatures for the Bayou Bishops' army. Rescued by Lesion, the community's esteemed alchemist, a formula designed to assist Nitro in his bat recruiting is created that leads to more interesting disasters. Meanwhile, as the Bayou Bishops seek out a mole among them, 8-bit, one of The Twelve, uses his techno skills and algorithms to select a wife who he's confident will provide him with the perfect, drama free arrangement. There will never be a dull moment in the bayou as mysteries unfurl and war looms on the horizon—along with rare, off-season hurricanes—bringing peril and forcing choices that will alter the course of their lives.
