For as long as anyone could remember, the Shardana sailed their gigantic ships peacefully across the endless waters of the Lautan Tedau, the Peaceful Sea, fishing, hunting the mighty raksasa and trading with the Kersang and the Pirumbi, the inhabitants of the islands dotting the ocean. This is the tale of the adventures of the ship Perahu and those onboard: Kura-Kura the orphaned turtle girl, Pirang the shaman's daughter, sleepless Mati and Kegentingan, the chief harpooner's only living son.
