But their world of adventure crumbles when Aloo is forced out of hiding and as Yurubi's unwomanly skills become apparent.

Under the cryptic eye of the village shaman, Yurubi and Aloo struggle against their anguish, fears and misgivings to fight for a place on an island that's home to some of the most fearsome warriors on Earth.
