Eight Bows

Eight Bows is a voyage into a world that was not ours, but could very well have been. It takes place at a time when bronze had given way to iron, when millennia-old empires were being uprooted and new ones were being planted in their place, when the human mind had just shifted from trance to reason.
The story follows two young men living through that fragile moment between ages.

Pyrros, a young sailor surviving a shipwreck on a hostile coast, seeks a cure for his troubled brother, who drifts in and out of fevered dreams he himself cannot understand.

Far inland, Niku, a boy in search of a throne, is determined to carve out a place for himself as the restorer of the ancient pride of an empire which is slowly withering away.

Fate draws them towards another land spoken of only in fading stories - a place few from their homelands have seen in centuries.

And as they journey towards it, the ghosts of long buried heroes still cast their shadows across their paths. For in such an age, memories become myths, and myths become weapons.
