"It is 1913 and late summer in the Ottoman Empire. The sun rises, full and golden, atop a lush, centuries-old village tucked into the highlands where the blood-red poppies bloom.

She knows only the love she has for Daron, who waits for her as she hastens to him, once again breaking the ancient rules of courtship.
