Melcorka and Bradan are returning from Cahokia. Their plans change abruptly when a storm sends them hundreds of miles off course. After their encounter with the demon Kanaima, Bradan notices something strange in Melcorka's behavior. After countless days at sea, they find themselves in a strange Eastern land - in the city of Kollchi - and surrounded by supernatural forces they have never seen before.

With her trusty sword Defender by her side, Melcorka sets to overcome the odds. But in this dangerous land of monsters and demonic power, will it be enough? The principal historical frame is Viking Age. Historical cultures and voyage traditions provide the framework for a fantasy in which myth, oral memory and supernatural power shape Alba’s struggle for survival.
