Loving parents. Loyal friends. Each other. Then the elves showed up. In the battle against a power craving Lord, these three best friends join forces with some unlikely creatures and are swept away on an epic adventure of a lifetime. Split between love for their families and hope for a better future, Zeo, Zinc, and Anise struggle to discover who and what they truly are.
