An epic battle ensues between two elemental gods, the Fire Spirit, Ahiga, and Wind Spirit, Haseya. With the help of an unlikely guardian, a young woman pregnant with Ahiga's child makes it to safety, along with her family, and survives the rebirth of the world. Ahiga, who broke the Elemental Code, is imprisoned deep within the earth.

Due to Ahiga's actions, other creatures have survived as well, shapeshifters decayed by evil. They should never be trusted.

Many generations later, a young boy named Kokopelli and his sister named Mai rescue a baby from the clutches of the shapeshifter wolf pack, relying on the aid of a wise medicine man named Sani who hides a secret of his own. In order to protect the people of their village hidden among the cliffs, they must undertake a dangerous quest. They journey past the Snake River into forbidden territories and encounter numerous perils. A mysterious figure in the forest will direct their path towards Ahiga. But only time will tell whether they can track down the Fire Spirit in time to save their unsuspecting village community from an impending siege of shapeshifters.
