Vaughan George, a young petroleum engineer was returning with his colleagues from a platform when the chopper they were traveling with crashed into the blue sea. By providence, he was pushed by raging waves some meters away from an Island. A young lady was paddling her canoe when she noticed him from a distance. She came to his rescue and brought him to her parents. Vaughan's presence was registered when he dethroned Oroto-the great wrestler, held in awe by the natives of the Island. He was further held in reverence when through his efforts, Kabuki - the fierce dragon monster was captured and sent to America zoo. These great achievements made the people of the Island worshipped him as the new god sent down to them. Vaughan was bitter on this, but finally sent to Vine-Harcourt - the great city, for missionaries.

Few years later, she wedded Vaughan according to the tradition of Isombe and traveled to America with her husband for further studies. In America, Vaughan and Beni distinguished themselves in their chosen careers. They made names both in the academic and corporate world.
