After losing her people in a brutal attack centuries ago, Ilwien does not hesitate to join a company of dwarves on a journey through which she might reclaim her homelands. She soon learns, however, that the leader of the company, a dwarf they call Thorin Oakenshield, seems set on hating her merely for the nature of her being. The question arises of who might manage to detest the other more, but then everything is turned upside down when Ilwien saves the dwarven king's life...
