With a loyal following of 100 men Taita faces every challenge the journey has to offer from the un-relenting desert heat to the poisonous flies of endless bamboo swamps, all while withstanding the mental battering from a powerful witch and exploring the presence of an un-known yet familiar presence on the ‘ether’ that seems to be guiding his steps.
