In the prehistoric world of Alara, where the whispers of Ancient Ones still shape reality, Yoran of the Takkakin tribe stands at the threshold of adulthood. As he prepares for his Proving, an ancient rite of passage, strange occurrences begin to plague his village. The old protections that have kept his people safe for generations are weakening, and creatures long thought to be mere legend now stalk the forests.
Guided by his uncle Tornu's wisdom and plagued by mysterious voices only he can hear, Yoran embarks on a perilous journey of self-discovery. As he ventures beyond the familiar boundaries of his home, he uncovers secrets about his world, his people, and himself that will challenge everything he thought he knew.
Thrust into a conflict as old as Alara itself, Yoran must navigate treacherous alliances, face unimaginable horrors, and harness a power he barely understands. With the fate of not just his tribe, but potentially all of Alara hanging in the balance, Yoran must decide who he truly is and what he's willing to sacrifice.
