You play Birdalone, stolen as a child and raised beside a great lake by a Witch-Wife who works you like a servant. A wood-spirit, Habundia, teaches you herb-craft and a ring that hides you from sight, then helps you steal her captor's enchanted boat. It carries you to an island where three women are held prisoner by the Witch-Wife's sister; you leave to complete its circuit rather than risk a rescue, and it lands you next beside an old man and two children who never seem to age.
