Synopsis

On a world inhabited by the furred, clawed Shonunin, a warrior named Duun raises a strange, smooth-skinned child called Thorn in strict isolation, training him in the ways of the elite Hatani guild. As Thorn grows and begins to question his own nature and origins, both he and Duun must navigate a society that fears what Thorn represents.
