After the hard winter, spring has finally returned to the valley and the villagers are ready to celebrate Beltaine, the feast of fertility. Líadan and Bregon, a young couple, use the occastion to be wed in a Handfasting ceremony, while Rórdán has been chosen as this year's Beltaine King - for a day, he will be treated like a king and his word will be law in the village. Yet, the village elders seem bent on involving him on plans of their own, while Rórdán himself is worried about becoming the counterpart of the witch - or rather the Moon Goddess - in a nocturnal magical ritual - which then develops into a quite unexpected direction...
