A mother of a young boy is sick while bearing another child. The young boy while out

exploring comes across an abandoned wolf cub and takes it home. Wolf fur has healing

abilities and after cuddling up to the mother she becomes better also infusing the child

with the spirit of the wolf. Years later the two boys are out playing near the water and the

older of the two begins to misbehave near the water. He hears a humming sound and

goes to inspect and is kidnapped by the Qalupalik (KA LOO PA LICK). The younger brother

Amarok sets out to rescue his brother with the help of the wolf spirit.

The boy has to go in search of the 5 great Adlet who will provide him greater power to aid

his fight against the Qalupalik and rescue his brother. But to gain these abilities the boy

has to defeat their five brothers to prove himself worthy. The five brothers were exiled

and became warriors who are said to serve the Keelut (KRE LUT) (An evil spirit in the form

of a black dog with hair only his feet). If the boy can free the land from their peril onlythen will the great Adlet grant him the power to defeat Qalupalik and rescue his brother.
