Synopsis
In a fantasy realm dominated by the tyrannical Golden Snake Empire, young Amon lives under the watchful care of his scientist father Fritz. Amon possesses a mystical spiritual affinity called light playing, which allows him to manipulate atmospheric currents, heal injuries, and glide upon the wind. When Fritz discovers the imperial military intends to exploit Amon's power to fuel an apocalyptic weapon, he attempts an escape, perishing in the attempt. Orphaned and hunted across vast continents, Amon discovers his heritage as the last son of the ancient Wind People, joining wilderness rebels to halt imperial tyranny.
