Kašimir is a kaš ni-an, a person born with heterochromia, special powers and an incredible luck following them wherever they go. As result, kaš ni-ans are not allowed to stay in one place and are public property of the country, forced to travel from one place to another in order to bring their luck to the towns all over the country. Kašimir has traveled for years now, enjoying the luxury of palaces and hospitality of each place he has put his feet on the ground of. However, due to what he is, nothing in his life ever stays for longer than one month - and then he has to travel again.
Jamal is a man born with a skin condition, his skin a mixture of light and dark. As such, people have always found Jamal to be an ill omen, causing him eventually distancing himself from most people. Even so, the mapmaker remains as kind and friendly, dreaming of one day seeing the world he always draws on his maps. He is directly working under the ruler of the city, but people’s prejudice against him prevent him getting the recognition he would actually deserve - and without this recognition, he is forever doomed to live in the city where everyone seems to be vary of him. One wants to go, one wants to say. An accidental encounter between the two men starts turning into curious arranged meetings that will permanently change their lives. What will happen when rumors about someone wanting to capture Kašimir start spreading? And what happens after the month is over and Kašimir must continue his travel again? |
