Set in barbaric times, a young fisherman lives in peace on an island surrounded by warfare. At age 16, Elgin becomes a man but is soon faced with the brutality of ancient living. Innocence is swept away by violence, forcing two lovers to face life without each other. Surrounded by warring invaders, Elgin's people must learn to fight or die. Annon, the ascetic, is a disciplined spiritual seeker whose fate is intertwined with greater powers. Two lives are forced to experience the full range of human emotions and to rise above their circumstances. Shipwrecks, battles, and a spell-bound jackal navigate around a timeless love story between Elgin and Corina. Elgin, with help from his wise teacher, must face his own demons while conquering his arch enemy.
