There he must wait for Kipik, an ancient being who has bound Jupi's family to a mammoth task: share a story every visit that appeases the fickle Kipik, or suffer unthinkable consequences.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eFor decades Jupi has made the trek, growing grey and exhausted carrying this burden. Nearing the end of his life, Jupi knows he must name a successor, someone from his bloodline who can carry this weight and pass it on to future generations. But Jupi's life has not been easy. His three children, one deceased, one incarcerated, one addicted, are not suitable successors.
