Owen, Axe, and Soren are on a quest to find out the nature of Owen's curse. They are accompanied by a short Satyr named Toro, who has lost his memory. When they get it back, Toro swears he’ll be able to tell Owen what's going on with his unusual situation. Soren has recently found out that her powers are capable of destroying the world and believes her past is tied together with Owen’s. She hopes one discovery will lead to another and that uncovering the truth behind Owen’s curse will help her learn who and what she really is. Axe, for his part, is clearly connected to the old gods, who keep getting mentioned, but all he's hoping for is another drink.
