41 years have passed since young Sparrow and his siblings rode across the expansive prairies and encountered the hostile tribe of men who decorated their heads in the fur of wolves. No one ever rode that far East again, and stories circulated the village about violent tribes that dressed as wolves. In the 41 years since our last episode, Sparrow passed away in a tragic hunting accident, leaving his son Brave to prove himself a capable hunter, not only to the tribe, but to himself.

26 Years have passed since our adventure with Shrew, and the village of Kurhass is still new to riding horses. Shrew married a beautiful woman from the village and had several boys and girls. Unfortunately, life was still hard for the hunter gatherers, and Shrew’s wife died in child birth. His surviving four children followed in his footsteps and spent most of their lives riding horses, a skill that most men and women in the village could not do. This story follows the path of Shrew’s second eldest son, Sparrow, and his quest to ride as far East as the great grasslands will allow.

Our saga begins 6000 years ago, in a small hunter gatherer village on the Pontic Steppe. This is the flat grasslands north of the Black Sea, in modern day Eastern Ukraine. Life was simple in the village, and revolved around herd animals, hunting, and fishing. This was life before writing, before farming, and before the advance of Horse riding. It is in this tiny village of Proto-Indo-Europeans that half of the modern day languages descended from. It is here that we start our story, with a small young lad named Shrew.
