A grand fantasy adventure through mist, myth,and magic. An encore success at Chicago's Goodman Theatre. Three settings, a throne room in a medieval castle; aboard the "Dragonfly"; on the beach at Aalmauria; subject to fantastic stylization. Cast of 4 men, 3 women (the seven roles may be created by as few as 3 men and 2 women).

The castle and lands of Meaghan, a strong young Queen, are threatened by an impending ice-age. In an ancient manuscript the Queen reads of a mystical flame burning in a cave on the island of Aalmauria. Enlisting the help of Captain Taran and his ship, "The Dragonfly," Meaghan sails to the island to retrieve the flame. Once aboard the ship the growing romance between the Captain and Queen changes to mistrust and anger, endangering the voyage. On Aalmauria, they must face the Beast and Hag-Witch, to pass into the cave, where they must then confront the awesome power of the flame itself. The conflicts are both external and internal. The voyage is also a passage of self-discovery as each character finds a new vision.
