Found and raised by Podlings after her mother hid her from the Garthim, Kira believes herself to be the last of her kind
War and terror have ravaged the lands of Thra. Where once many Gelfling thrived; grim ruins, long reclaimed by vines and weeds, stand quiet and deathly still. The Gelfling are gone, wiped out by the Skeksis and their murderous warrior-slaves, the Garthim. Yet even as a voiceless wind blows leaves through lifeless stone streets and empty halls, a secret hope is nurtured…
A child of the forest, Kira spends her days exploring with her pet Fizzgig, listening to the songs of the woodland, and learning about its denizens. Having the gift of communion with her wild animal friends, Kira can divine meaning in the intricacies of their calls and reproduce them to speak with even the humblest of creatures. On silvery wings she flits through the forest and with bare feet she treads quietly its secret paths, alert to the sounds and moods of her surroundings. Yet on this day, as the Three Suns edge closer together in the sky, Kira’s exploring brings her face to face with a being she has never seen before, and yet, more familiar than any she has known. Could it be?
