Otci, a rising youth in the village of Attaugee in the great Muskogee nation, knew the rites of initiation to warriorhood and manhood would demand the best of mind, body, and spirit. But what he didn't know was how quickly the tensions mounting in the nation would bring the ultimate conflict, and challenge Otci to his very core. Otci and his brother initiates are trained by a master legend-giver for the ceremony that marks their transition. He is assisted by Pakahle, a beautiful and insightful attendant. With a new name given at the Green Corn Festival from his visions, he inherits a position of power among Attaugee, and soon the nation's warriors.
