Once upon a time during the Saxon conquest of Britain, there was a boy named Owain who, along with a war hound, was the sole survivor of the battle of Aquae Sulis. While searching for any remnant of the British host, he discovers a young girl, Regina, alone in a sacked and ruined city. As they attempt to escape to the safety of the British settlement in Gaul, Regina falls deathly ill, and Owain's only hope of saving her is a nearby Saxon homestead. The Saxons agree to care for her, but in return they sell Owain into slavery. This is Owain's story and his journey through darkness to find hope on the dawn wind.
