A visually stunning fantasy about an unlikely bond between warrior and dragon, undone by loss and the tragic cost of obsessive pursuit.

A wandering warrior finds an unlikely friend in the form of a young dragon. The two develop a close bond, until one day the dragon is snatched away. She then sets out on a relentless quest to reclaim her friend, finding in the end that her quest exacts a far greater price than she had ever imagined.
