After ten years, he finally rises to the position of chieftain, only to learn on the very day he reaches the top that he has just three months left to live. He refuses to accept it, not because he fears death, but because he has yet to enjoy a single day of life. So he lays down his blade, picks up a book, and embarks on a wild quest to find a way to live forever.
