Story outline:

FA HIEN
The Fearless Monk
Based on a true story from history

To learn true wisdom, he traversed bone-dry deserts, scaled the snow-laden mountains Himalayas, and grieved over lost friends. To spread his hard-won knowledge, he battled stormy seas and unimaginable dangers. But his lords blessings seemed to protect this brave Chinese monk, who spent 15 years retracing the steps of Buddha and his teachings from China to India and back.

Arriving in Gupta-ruled India, Fa Hien kept a record of his travels (between A.D. 399 and 414), which fascinate even to this day. In this simple and beautiful comic book, you travel with Fa Hien to experience his wisdom, courage and sensitivity as it shines through.
