Publisher's Synopsis
Jerrod is a young salt farmer trapped in a dead-end village. As the years pass by, he finds himself drifting through the motions, dreaming of a world beyond his own.
After plunging into the sea at a young age, Vhorgun found himself entranced by the sight of a massive whale. Ever since, he has been on the hunt for the next big prize, and his appetite has quickly passed beyond the borders of his home. Borys has an eye for the finer side of craftsmanship, despite his family's longstanding tradition of producing miners and masons. For years, he has endured insults, waiting for the day to prove his worth to his clan. Despite living there for two years, no one knows where Shale came from or why he arrived at the village. Many are afraid to ask for fear that he would take his healing skills elsewhere. These four live in Djinbar, a village removed from the rest of the world. Without a doubt, it is one of the most peaceful places on earth. That is, until an emissary from a nearby nation arrives, foretelling the doom that evil lords are bringing to their doorstep. The four and the other Djinbari answer the call to war, yet little do they realize how dangerous and vast the outside world is. The road before them is full of peril and their destinies are uncertain. Without relying on each other, they cannot hope to survive.
