For A Song

Blat (an unfortunate name for a singer) is a young farmer boy recruited by a member of the Minstrels’ Guild.  Fourteen years later, he has completed his studies and been a Touring Minstrel ever since.  While looking for material to inspire a new song, Blat stumbles upon a heretofore unknown society of people living in the rocky labyrinth beneath Whitecap Island’s central glacier.  They can no longer fulfill the task for which they were born and are in danger of becoming extinct.  Worse, they are being drained of their lifeforce by the illusive and sinister Brothers of the Watch.He recruits Crag Bithoone, a brilliant but unstable scientist, and two children whose parents have been captured by the Brothers.  Fueled by a need he barely acknowledges - to prove himself to the woman he loves - Blat must overcome mind-torture, bodiless travelling, a stronghold of Brothers, and their leader who has become truly unhinged.It seems a lot to take on… for a song.
