In distant lands, beyond the great and misty Sarapin Sea, lies the fertile kingdom of Yawrana. A significant prophecy is about to unfold with the arrival of a small group of Zonack voyagers aboard the gallant flying ship The Star Gazer. The Elders, visionaries, and prophets of Yawrana, warn of downfall and destruction as the two civilizations meet. Oreus Blake, one of eight members aboard the ship, discovers he is the key to the prophecy's outcome. Within days of their arrival, a deadly illness befalls several members of the Yawranan Royal Court. All parties present fall under suspicion, including the voyagers themselves. The only known cure lies within the limitless healing powers of an ancient flower referred to as the snowtear. Having no other choice, Oreus must gain the trust of the Yawranans as they embark on a quest to retrieve the protected snowtears through many inherent dangers, including a mythic race of warriors known as the Lazuls.
