Many thousands of years ago, a young boy named Siri grew up in an isolated mountain kingdom. Seeking answers to his past, he somehow manages to escape, joined by an older man who would become his mentor, as well as by his only friend, who would later become his bitter enemy. The three travel north amid a world devastated by a recent cataclysm. Little does Siri realize that his moves are being monitored, having no idea that he is the centerpiece of a bizarre scheme to recover the last remaining flying machine left on earth. They eventually reach the Isle of Britannia. There, Siri meets a young, black-haired priestess who would become the love of his brief life. The story takes a dramatic turn when Siri, among others, departs Britannia by ship, arriving upon the shores of a totally new land. There, Siri takes it upon himself to aid and teach the primitive inhabitants, introducing them to the arts of farming, writing, and building. For a while, all goes well. Then unexpectedly, his past catches up with him. As a result, he learns the shocking truth about his past. Other perils confront him as well. Siri's story reads like an epic-style adventure. Tall, skinny, and awkward, he is a far cry from the typical sword-swinging hero. Though fiction, the work incorporates a good deal of fact as well as a spattering of science fiction and the supernatural. A sad and tragic ending to his short life. However, one which is intrinsically tied to the rise of myth and legend; as well as the establishment (or reestablishment) of civilization itself.
