"Can't I just have that one girl? Am I not permitted just one act of selfishness?"
Before Sooyi and Niroo embarked on their epic quest to the Dead City, Sooyi lived a peaceful life as an idealistic girl living in a simple town called Hasoomal. One day, Old Man Jihal tricks Sooyi's father Lahoon into violating one of the town's sacred laws. The penalty is death. Only a pardon from the Water King himself can save Sooyi's father. Unfortunately, Lord Ganok has only granted such pardons in folk tales and half-forgotten legends. The desperate Sooyi climbs the deadly mountain and reaches the Water King's palace, but the price for her father's pardon might just be her body and soul.
