The Tsehun people have a saying. "Our blood burns hotter than the blood of delicate men." And Alo son Dasan wants to be a man in the tradition of his people. To be a great hunter that rivals his older brother, Kuruk, and makes his father proud. But there is one major problem. Alo is a terrible shot. Can he pass the traditional rites and become a man? Will he make his first kill and begin his journey as a great hunter of the Tsehun? Or will he fail and become one of the Yielded? An outcast among his people. Less than a man and having no purpose. But there might be another danger lurking in the shadows of a distant land. One that forces Alo and his people to make an alliance with the world they work so hard to avoid. And maybe the delicate men are not as delicate as they assumed.
