In ancient days before the great biblical flood, men separated themselves from Jehovah, the God of creation. Evil intent is rampant as the idols of their affection demand brutality and human sacrifice. It is in this era that Alana struggles to find hope. The tragic death of her father left her in the care of her uncle, Eran, the very man her father died to save. Her life is spared only because Eran is terrified to break the oath of blood he swore to as his brother lay dying. Desperate and alone, Alana decided to take her own life. It was only the sound of a soft loving voice that seemed to be carried by the wind that stopped her from jumping to her death. "Jehovah, daughter, remember Jehovah!" She knew not why, but from that day on, the name Jehovah became her hope and her stronghold. Elsewhere, Noah is living in obedience to Jehovah. He and his family are counted as the only righteous as they faithfully continue in their task of building the ark. Noah's sons Ham and Japheth have married, and as Jehovah instructed Noah, each of their wives is from the lineage of his ancestor Enoch. So must be the wife of his other son, Shem. Alana's uncle searches desperately to fulfill the oath he pledged to his brother. Only on its fulfillment would he be free of the daughter of his dead brother. At the same time, Shem questions his father, Noah, "How can there remain a young woman, faithful to Jehovah, from the lineage of our ancestors?" Jehovah's plan is soon to unfold.
