In the Words of Good Living, the holy text by which Amian disciples
live their lives, Owndiah promises each of his followers a peace
that surpasseth all human understanding. And when Brine the
disciple leaves his homeland and travels to the desert monastery of
Valley Rock to serve Owndiah and to walk in the footsteps of
Amontus, he thinks he will obtain this peace. He is wrong-Dead
wrong. It is only after ten years of trying-and all but giving up
on the ineffable goal-that God decides to call. It happens as Brine
is reading a mysterious letter from his homeland, feeling the
presence of God envelop him so sweetly, so utterly, that there is
no other way to interpret the sensation. Owndiah wants Brine to go
home, wants him back in the Kingdom of Jashandar. Could the peace
that surpasseth all human understanding be there? Jaysh the
woodsman-ardent recluse and current subject in the Kingdom of
Jashandar-would have to say yes. For even though Jaysh knows
nothing about monasteries or prophets or powerful feelings from his
dreams, he knows a lot about peace. He knows it comes from living
in the hills and valleys of the kingdom and from spending time with
a scroungy, little cat-like creature named Zeph. Or at least he
used to know this. Here of late, Jaysh's life has been less than
peaceful. Ever since the Kingdom of Jashandar began to wake,
tranquility is hard to come by. There are disfigured animals,
defiled rivers, that large and voiceless creature peeking at him
from the bushes... Jashandar is a mess.
