Mankind's greatest hero, Siegfried, is wooed by love and lust to make a pledge which will condemn his beloved Valkyrie and bring the attention of Wotan. Violence and ill-conceived marriages go hand in hand as the magical Ring is once again exchanged. There is only one last chance to avoid the death of man and gods alike. P. Craig Russell's graceful adaptation of the Germanic opera cycle continues on its journey of innocence, greed, and the glistening beauty of a time when Gods walked the earth.
