In a world blighted by feuding clans and constant conflict, there is a name spoken in even further hushed tones than the most fearsome of warlords; the Behemoth. A creature that towers above all in sight, with matted fur covering its rocky form. It has waged war with mankind for a millennium and stunted the progression of the species, leading to one question – why?
One night, whilst on his way to a mysterious rendezvous, a shadus named Lament Strife is ambushed by famed warrior Vaiske Parlet who appears to suffer a mortal wound mere seconds before Lament passes out. When Lament awakes, Vaiske is nowhere to be found and the shadus is left with a peculiar illness afflicting him. In the days that follow, he resolves to find Vaiske Parlet and discover the reason for this strangest of occurrences.
Meanwhile, Arvan Deit, a boy on the verge of manhood, sets out on his first adventure – to find his missing teacher, Master Lawliet Snow. Bored of his uneventful a life as an orphan in a small town, Arvan vows to embark on a great quest and make his master proud.
These characters are forced together by necessity but torn apart from one another by differing, and often conflicting, interests. Only one thing is certain; their journey leads in one direction – in the footsteps of the Behemoth.
