The N'Wone, or water women, are vital in the desert. From childhood, they learn to hear everything, like the flapping of White-billed Ravens' wings or the murmur of an underground stream. The last N'Wone has become one of the Great White Snake's stars before her time, so now it's her daughter, Nanga, who must succeed her. But Nanga is only eight years old; she's too young to be a water woman. Everyone thinks so.

Sometimes, Nanga envies her brother, Rai, who isn't charged with saving the village. Because the water in the well tastes increasingly salty: it's drying up, and only a N'Wone can find the solution.
