Pedro is a grieving father and fisherman who aims to provide for his family after they've been banished from town after the demise of trying to prove that dynamites and ill-willed men caused the death of his son, Andro. Pedro's wavering belief in the lore of the Golden Angel and Black Demon has caused him to think that Hai, a fisherman he found unconscious at sea, is causing the new plagues in his life. Hai is able to catch good fish in a sea where Pedro could not even catch a single sardine. Hai becomes Pedro's means to provide for his family, until it caused him the grief of remembering the son he lost and the beliefs that killed him.
