Plot summary
The amazons are a tribe of warrior women from a mythical age, each one's spirit bound to a magical tree. Kalungo, an evil king, leads an army against them, and his power comes from the Weird Ways and a demonic being. The tribe's High Priest holds a ceremony, and the warrior Dyala sees the sword of Azundati waiting in her future. The blade has been lost for centuries. The Emerald Queen decides that Dyala and Tashi should retrieve it, since she believes it can stop Kalungo. Vishti, one of Kalungo's oppressed servants, slips away from his household in disguise and joins the amazons.
