The story of Magdala and her "pilgrimage" to a relic she thinks can cure her.  Journey starts through the desert with her father and along the way she travels with a disgraced priest.  This take place sometime after an event that is not explained well.  There are hybrid human/plant beings that are also in the desert.  Story is disjointed for me and sometimes I struggled with following along on the plot.  Not recommended.
