| Review Summary |
Hedzi is a princess whose only friend and cousin D'en has disappeared. After much research Hedzi begins to realise that she is getting to that same age where many of her family have disappeared before her. Also on an adventure is Perkar, seeking to save the stream God, whom he believes he loves, from the powerful River God. Their fates are intertwinned and the great River God has many surprises in store for them both.
