In the forest Falmora lives an ancient race. Their small size brings peril from even smaller animals; yet the greater threat is distrust and prejudice among kinsmen. Will they hold by the old ways of the Great One or the false laws of Havar? When Fendun breaks taboo by calling out Andreno's full name and is banished, passions flare. For Andreno, fearing to break an even graver taboo, will not grant forgiveness. Meanwhile, Fendun struggles to survive, shadowed by the forest girl, Allialónae, adept at weapons and living with nature. Overall looms a mysterious watcher, Angara, shaped by dire acts and enduring hate—is he friend or foe? Finally, Tanéha, a young woman of rare insight, hears the great night bird's cry and urges the Falmorans to cease their quarrels and unite. Will they heed her warning and triumph over the evil one, Havar?
