In a primitive land where native humans rule and where the forest swelling Woldriders must hunt and hide to survive, Shuna, adopted human daughter of elf chief Cutter, strives to fit in with her new family. Idealistic and brave, she embarks on a quest to unite elf and humankind, even as elfin smith Treestump works to master the mysteries of the forge in the long-abandoned troll tunnels.

Can a lone human girl be the link between to mistrustful races? Can Treestump realise his dream to forge a sword while a new and lurking menace threatens? Two heros, two quests, one irresistably compelling story!
