In this elaborately mounted seafaring experience, Rolfe is a Viking leader with a pirate's cute and devious mind. Rolfe tells the others of"The Mother of Voices," a colossal bell made of gold as tall as three men, but he adds enough erroneous details to throw them off the appropriate course. But, Aly Mansuh, the leader of a set of challenging Moors, sees the narrative of Rolfe, and soon the two are to be the first to ever capture the precious bell.
