Fourteen-year-old Viggo is a street kid who is at war with life itself. When the army passes through his village and a soldier takes notice of him, he joins the fight against the violent nation of Ustrunia. Agnita is an adventurous young girl who follows her best friend, Frenz, to a military camp in hopes of helping with the war effort. Helena is a sad girl who discovers a rock in the crevice of a mine and starts to wonder if it would be more than what it seems. Martin comes from a family of merchants, but he is forced to live the life of a vagabond as they try to outrun the war. Engulf is a deserter of the Ustrunian army, but he realizes that life in Nortforth as a hated foreigner is just as deadly as fighting in battle. As war infects the once peaceful nation of Norforth, these young people must fight to survive the harshest season of their lives.
