Prologue

On a stormy night a group of peasants tell a crying child a story to calm her. They explain about the prejudice on the island they live on and how hard their lives are compared to the lives of the wealthy. They also explain that there are a number of Gods who control fortune and misfortune on the island. At the end of the song they introduce the story of a girl whose life was spared in a storm and who was sent on a journey to test the strength of love and death between two classes.
