PlotIn an untamed North American landscape, a young Viking boy is left behind after his clan battles the Native American tribes. Struggling to survive in a foreign land, the boy is rescued and raised by a kind Native American woman. As he grows into a man, his past with the Vikings becomes a distant memory, replaced by the ways of his new people and a deep respect for their culture. He is given the name Ghost, reflecting his mysterious origins and his ability to move silently and unseen. Despite his efforts to fit in, Ghost stands out due to his distinct physical appearance and the skills he brought from his Norse heritage, marking him as an outsider within the tribe.
Years later, when a band of Viking marauders returns to unleash a new wave of terror upon the native tribes, Ghost finds himself caught between two worlds. His loyalty to his adoptive people is put to the test as he uses his knowledge of Viking tactics against them. As the Vikings' brutal assault threatens to annihilate the tribes, Ghost steps forward as an unlikely hero, utilizing his unique skills in warfare to lead a desperate fight for survival. His struggle is not just about physical combat but also an internal battle to reconcile his past with his present, defining his identity and the path he must take.
