Description
COME TOGETHER IN BODY AND SOULWhen a pregnancy occurs on Heart it is two-fold. The female carries the body and the male carries the soul. Both have to be present at birth for the soul to enter the body, otherwise the body is born useless and the soul is left to dissipate. Heart is a planet recovering from an unexplained catastrophe which occurred so long ago that the inhabitants are entirely unaware of their history. Most live in isolated settlements that are self-sufficient, thinly populated, and generally happy; their only source of outside information limited to encounters with travellers, lone nomads who have chosen a life of hardship in order to find artefacts, tell stories, and gain wider experiences. Following an encounter with one such nomad, Calvin, a boy on the verge of puberty, harbours a secret desire to travel; but it will take an unexpected act of violence some years later to encourage him to leave everyone he knows and to strike out on his own. What he discovers is not only unexpected, but will shock him to his core.
