The Great Wyrm Ouroboros – the ceaseless cycle of destruction and renewal.
 
In a small coastal town, an ancient force stirs, drawn by the cumulative power of life and death,  grief and sorrow, and, ultimately, endless love.
 
Ouroboros -- life out of death.
 
Tom Christiansen’s wife of 35-years, Dolly, is dead.  His world suddenly shattered, Tom takes refuge in his house to grieve and reflect.  Tom’s thin veil of reality and fantasy begins to crack and slip.  He hears things:  the rusty creak of the backyard swing; the tap of tiny feet from an upstairs room.   And he sees things, as well: a small rubber ball bouncing slowly down the stairs; birds like silent sentinels on electrical wires; a strange little pig-tailed girl suddenly appearing in his yard.  And what is that mysterious figure lying in the upstairs bed that he used to share with his beloved wife?
 
Ouroboros -- a new cycle has begun.
 
Tom’s long-time neighbors, and dearest friends, Mick and Robbie Hamlin begun to glimpse strange behavior from grief-stricken Tom.  They witness dinner place-settings for two.  They hear hushed conversations from the old house, as if Tom is speaking to himself, as if he isn’t alone.  There is a pale little girl in the backyard, swinging ceaselessly.  And something is rustling in the bushes, peering out from the undergrowth with inquisitive eyes.
 
Ouroboros -- the end is just the beginning.
