One day, a mysterious old man arrives on his land after a long journey and, on his deathbed, tells him about some golden seeds that could restore abundance to his crops. However, he will have to pay a high price if he wants to find them, for the seeds are in the place where the moon is born and returns to die, where the earth announces its end, a place from which no one has ever returned. Shuna, hopeful at the idea of ending his people's famine, embarks on a dangerous journey to the west.
