故事

[编辑]

故事发生在被高墙包围的阿拉曼城(Aramanth),一个以考试成绩及家庭评分(Rankings)来判断个人价值的精英领导型共产社会,在考试中做得更好及提升评分是唯一能够改善生活环境的方法。

阿拉曼城采用多种颜色以分开数个社会阶层的公民:

(低下人士)>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>(上级人士)
灰色 -> 综色 -> 橙色 -> 红色 -> 白色
Grey Maroon Orange Scarlet White

一个家庭所属的阶级取决于其家庭评分,人民必须依从高考审查官员(High Examiners)的指示就职指定的工作,居住于指定住所及只穿著其阶层颜色的衣服。

A minority in their society, the Haths believe more in ideas and dreams than in endless toil and ratings. When young Kestrel defies the harsh classification system of Aramanth she flees, finding herself in the company of the Emperor of Aramanth. Thought to be the ruler of the city, he is found to be merely a puppet of the High Examiner, and the Emperor tells Kestrel of the need to rid Aramanth of the influence of the evil Morah, of the need to return the voice to the mysterious wind singer that stands in the city arena.

Using an archaic map given to her by the Emperor she sets off, joined by her twin brother, Bowman, and their brave but pitiful new friend, Mumpo, who has an unshakeable affection for Kestrel. From city sewers to desert sandstorms, impassable canyons to dangerous forests, the journey leads them to the Halls of the Morah, the very heart of the evil that has taken control of the city. Here the children finally retrieve the voice of the wind singer, in the process waking the terrible Zars, army of the Morah. Pursued by the beautiful, evil and unstoppable Zars, the children race back to Aramanth, arriving just in time to return the wing singer’s voice. The voice allows the wind singer to emit a powerful song that destroys the Zars, and the people of Aramanth, finally free of the Morah, are happy again.
