Jebel Rum's biggest weakness...Is weakness. He is the son of the Um Wadi's executioner, and is therefor expected to try out for his Father's job. There is, however, one slight problem. Jebel is much too skinny to be able to wield the large axe. As a laughing stock in his own town, Jebel decides to leave on a dangerous adventure to the lair of a mysterious god. It is a dark, brutal, terrifying journey. However, to Jebel, the risk is worth it to restore his honour and to hold unimaginable power to become the thin executioner.
