When Lost River's tribe is attacked by a strange creature that seems half man and half beast, she is terrified, believing it to be the mythical Sun God. Then a deadly fire starts and Lost River is separated from her tribe.

Confused and alone, she sees movement in the smoke. Maybe it's someone from her tribe. Desperate, she follows - and finds herself alone
with the beast half of the Sun God!

But the beast seems afraid too. Maybe it's not a god at all, but an animal, an animal as frightened as she is. An animal who is also running for its life.
