Car-En, an anthropologist from The Stanford on her first Earth field assignment, observes a Viking-like village in the Harz mountains of what was once Germany. Many of the villagers die in mid-life due to a mysterious disease. Car-En violates the department's official policy of Non-Interventionism to help the denizens of Happdal, defying and infuriating her over-controlling advisor Adrian Vanderplotz. Car-En witnesses Katja, a villager, kidnapped by a strange white-haired man. The villagers believe Katja has been captured by the forest gast, an evil body-thieving sprite.
