When a young lieutenant scouting ahead of the advancing Myetran army stumbles across a Cironian boy being attacked by a mountain cat, his instinctive action to intervene on the boy's behalf takes but a moment. But that instant swiftly unfolds into a complex bond between himself and the villagers he is duty-bound to enslave and murder.

For Ciron to survive and be free, a handful of women and men of good will from three extremely different peoples must find a way to overcome their righteous resentments and learn to trust one another, as guerrilla war unfolds in the idyllic countryside.
