The Story
Trapped behind walls built by the Guildmasters, the town's
oppressive rulers, two unlikely young lovers are thrust into a world
of dungeons, dreams and revolution in this timeless, classic
struggle for freedom.
An unlikely hero.
Anna, the devout daughter of a powerful Guildmaster, shocks
herself and her town by taking up with the roguish pot mender,
Tinker. When her reckless Tinker finds his father murdered, he
lashes out at the Guildmasters, who throw him in prison -- leaving
Anna alone to fend for herself.
From an old lunatic in his cell, Tinker learns that he is the
one who will lead his people out the city's Gates to everlasting
freedom. All he must do is find the key... locked in his own dream
world.
A mythic quest.
It is there in his dreams that Tinker becomes Pilgrim, a defenseless
hero facing an army of creeping, menacing evils that thwart his
quest for the key.
When the stories of the Pilgrim and his search for the key are
smuggled among the town, they incite courage in the residents and
inspire them to rise up against their oppressors and fight for
themselves.
An epic love story.
As the quest for the key intensifies, the two young lovers
fight for their love and their lives in a world bent on building
walls that keep them apart -- knowing the fate of their entire world
rests in their hands. . . .
