In the river town of Puerto Diablo, somewhere at the end of South America, a tall stranger arrives to threaten the peace of the natives, the villagers, the local outlaws, and Father Joseph Black, a strong and fierce man of God known as the Black Priest. It is a tale of choices made, and not made, and the ends they lead to, for good and evil. 

Prayer of ibn al-Arabi

Salaam and Greetings of Peace:

Purify my soul from doubt and bad character, from misfortune and negligence.

Bestow upon me true servanthood, that I may be obedient to You in all my states.

Ya Haqq!

I am a fountain, You are my water

I am a fountain, You are my water.
I flow from You to You.

I am an eye, You are my light,
I look from You to You.

You are neither my right nor my left.
You are my foot and my arm as well.

I am a traveler, You are my road.
I go from You to You.

–Zeynep Hatun, 15th Century
