A young girl, holding the statue of a horse, hears the tale of this young stallion. But is it only a folk tale?
He ascends the clouds to carry the dead to the river of rebirth. He loses his love, the black mare Bone; and for the rest of his life he seeks the light in the Further Mountains, to bring life to her and the suffering earth. Hell-raiders harrow demons, but heroism is not enough. He climbs to a monastery whose abbess is a Tyrannosaurus. The orderly life does not suffice. He finds tantric women led by a Tigress. Passion does not suffice.
He goes higher still, to the peaks where the lightning strikes. Will death suffice?
And how will the girl holding his statue live out this story?
