There are also aliens in flying saucer which are capturing and enslaving new arrivals who fall through the _gates.Ó One group of new arrivals meets a protector, a man who calls himself the Herald. He promises safety¾but in exchange, he requires a piece of their souls in payment.

The two are often in contention along their borders, and terrible war periodically breaks out between them. When a young Yurth woman goes on her coming-of-age vision quest, one young Raski warrior follows her¾and together they discover a secret that will surely unbalance their world and may change Zacar forever.
