Dayla's tribe, the people of the valley, live out their lives peacefully on a land which they call the Yandekai, the soil of the first ancestors. As an apprentice to the Shamana, the oldest and wisest woman in the tribe, she spends her days studying the art of Arcana, a magic only few have the patience and persistence to master. But her studies soon came to an end. The people of the valley are under the threat of war with another tribe beyond the mountains. After an unprovoked attack from creatures which nobody in Yandeki had ever seen before, Dayla seeks out the rival tribe, hoping to fulfill her desire for vengeance.
