Mirickar is on the hunt. His quarry: An ancient enemy race that others deny are even in the kingdom. Mirickar knows better. The kurakvin murdered his parents and he couldn't even give them a decent burial. But Mirickar grew up on a farm and doesn't know much about combat. Sraikura, the neighbor girl, also survived the kurakvin raid. She just wants to run and hide. Mirickar delays his mission of vengeance to seek a hiding place for her in the nearby forest.
She has other ideas and begs him to stay with her, insisting that a mysterious magical power in the forest will protect them both. Protection isn't what he wants.

Can he really find any kurakvin to fight? If so, will he prevail? And to what end?But Mirickar will not be deterred. There are kurakvin in the land. Kurakvin he intends to kill.
