The people of the Mud Whale have fought off the forces of the Allied Empire-for now-and their only hope for continued survival is to find an ally from beyond the Sea of Sand. So when the bombastic Captain Rochalizo sails his ship alongside their island, Mayor Suou is ready and eager to befriend the stranger. But even if Rochalizo can offer asylum, they have no way to navigate the Mud Whale. That is, until the mysterious Aima begins unlocking the Mud Whale's secrets for Chakuro... A gripping postapocalyptic fantasy adventure in the vein of Nausicaa.
