Arshile has no memory of his past. He and his travel companion Cartis cross paths with a man named Rodney who greets Arshile as though they know each other and asks if he has remembered anything yet. Shortly after, Arshile wakes in a palace on a remote island with no clear understanding of how he got there — apparently taken by the same mysterious man. The pieces of his past, and the painful truth of what happened, surface from there.
