Awakened to the memories of a previous life, one boy must navigate a brutal world of demi-human conflict in this gripping third volume of the dark fantasy saga. Having crushed the pigmen's Guardian Bearer with overwhelming might, Kai secured the safety of the valley and the Korol tribe. But peace is short-lived. Nada, a truth-seeker from the great monastery, arrives in Rug Village with a dangerous goal - to claim the mighty Earth God born in the borderlands. Suspicious of Nada's sorcery, Kai, host of the Valley God, stands ready to defend his home. Meanwhile, in the forests nearby, over a thousand grey macaques prepare for war.
