A beautiful young woman, a handsome young man. Living in turbulent times - meet and fall in love over many years of love letters and meetings. Surrounded by the majestic landscape, legends and cultural mores, they each make their way towards each other. A perfect match. The fast changing economic and social environment and circumstances of each, occasionally interrupt their progress. And the influences of the new colonial opportunities and hurdles place previously unimaginable barriers in their path. Friends and family sway their thoughts and their future paths. Until they each choose.
