A small boy found in the wild was brought to the mountain village, where he grew up and was trained by the village sword master.The boy, Hawk, had to kill a fellow student who tried to kill him and had to leave the village quickly because of it.Joining a caravan for a short time, Hawk then began to travel, only to meet a girl, Thea, and ended up training her.They ended up traveling together from town to town, with them joining a caravan together. With that job completed, they decided to do a little traveling, only to find a little girl and returned her to family.Joining another caravan, they found a town they wished to return to. They completed their job with the caravan and traveled back to the little town to try to settle down, only to have the girl Thea grabbed by the wizard's men.Hawk found her missing and went looking for her, only to be drugged and brought and ended up on the Dragon Island.He made a deal with the head of the island to help him find the girl and reunite them.They returned to the mainland and set up camp and recruited a few men and women for the warrior training for the island.Hawk and Thea had agreed to train new dragon warriors from the mainland.Before the camp was set up, Hawk needed to return to the mountain village to meet with his old sword master's request, only to find him dying.The warriors completed the training on the island, and Hawk and Thea returned to the mainland, only to find that trouble had popped up on the Misty Islands. Hawk then returned to the islands to take care of the wizard Gog once and for all.
