"There's plenty, plenty more to this world than what we see with our eyes."

12-year-old JV is learning just how much truth lies behind those words.

He has discovered that he's one of a select few entrusted with preserving the balance between the world's natural and unnatural realms and is now more driven than ever to know who his birth parents are.

He and his friends, Carol and Riaz, have received a cryptic warning from a supernatural being who dwells in the Oscuros Forest, launching them into a high-stakes mission. Can they solve the riddle and protect a villager from the foretold doom before time runs out?
