Theos Alwyn is a poet whose dreams of success and fame have faltered from a lack of creative energy. Desperate to regain contact with the Muse, Alwyn travels to an ancient monastery in the Caucasus Mountains, where a legendary monk named Heliobas resides. Looking for guidance through an out-of-body-experience, Alwyn gains Heliobas' trust and receives a powerful vision. Following the advice of an Angel, he journeys to the field of Ardath with a newly reinforced faith. He falls asleep only to wake at the gates of the city of Al-Kyris, where he befriends the poet Sah-Luma, with whom he senses a strange connection. Slowly, events unfold that make him question the nature of his reality. Is he Theos Alwyn the Victorian poet, or is he Sah-Luma, an artist and mystic who died nearly 7,000 years before? When he returns to the present, he discovers a life of fame and success he struggles to recognize as his own, and sets out on one last journey of self-discovery.
