The White Stag is the story of a culture of which I know little, that of the tribes of the Huns and the Magyars. The two tribes were once one, but split to follow two brothers, one adventurous, the other less intent on fighting. Both tribes roamed westward, in search of the white stag, and were eventually reunited under the leadership of Attila.

This story had a surprising rhythm, a cadence almost like a fairy tale, filled with battles and power struggles and wanderings.
