Alama, the nomad, starts his journey in search of peace from his village of Kataka. He walks to Maragoi and ends up near Tamba, both towns in the northern region of Yeta. Alama is guided by the Oracle who lives in the acacia tree at the Red Brown River and the Kokoloko bird. Along the way, he meets elders and people from various cultural communities from across the land. The elders exchange stories and their walking sticks made out of peace trees.
