Synopsis

In the untamed deserts of the American frontier, a mysterious new power is rising. That is, the ability to manipulate the very sand itself.
Grit; the power of strength. Of tools and weapons, Grit is wielded by those who seek to dominate, who would use their strength to bend the land and its people to their will.
Dust; a magic of healing, comfort, and illusion. As a practice, subtle and often misunderstood.
Opposites in a land where only the fittest might survive.

Kootala—a native Hoki man with a penchant for Dust—works as Sheriff’s Clerk in the tranquil town of Bluff’s Reach. There, Kootala shares a simple life with his partner, Luke Morgan, far from the dangers and violence of the wild west. There, Kootala revels in his Hoki virtues, valuing peace over all else.
Yet the west grows quickly, and violence—spurned by Luke Morgan’s dark past—finds purchase in Bluff’s Reach. Unknown to all, Luke has secretly been working for the criminal outlaw, Casey Calhoun; a man of ruthless Grit. Should Kootala learn of this secret, it would surely break his heart. And so, when Luke’s past finally catches up to him, when Casey Calhoun sets his malice upon their little town, Luke’s life with Kootala—and all of Bluff’s Reach—face total obliteration.

Where the powers of Grit and Dust collide, where vengeance rains upon the desert, the men of the west face the very nature of power, of masculinity, and what it truly means to be a hero.

“Your strength, be it Grit or Dust, comes from belief in yourself. Your power to alter the world is not a factor of skill. It comes from your resolve. You are what you are, so be sure of yourself, and don’t let the notions of others change that. For what change can you make to the world, if you let the world change you first?”
