    [synopsis] => Nau cannot remember a time when she was not one with the world around her: with the fast breeze, the green grass, the high clouds, and the endless blue sky above the Shingled Spit. But, her greatest joy is to visit the sea, where whales gather every morning to gaily spout rainbows.

Then one day, she finds a man in the mist where a whale should be: Reu, who has taken human form out of his Great Love for her. Together these first humans become parents to two whales, and then to mankind. Even after Reu dies, Nau continues on, sharing her story of brotherhood between the two species. But, as these origins grow distant, the old woman's tales are subsumed into myth-and her descendants are increasingly bent on parading their dominance over the natural world.
