A tragic history of an unknown tribe is almost entirely wiped out of extinction 100,000 years ago from our present-day by a devastating creature within the Earth's core known as Calamity. This magnificent tribe who were known as the Novalites contai...
As this happens, Evan is revisiting a memory within his dreams that happened around 5 years ago when his father was still alive.
A young Evan scrounges through worn relics and dusty antiques in his attic in England. Pottery clatters against metal as an entranced boy looks through his father's found artifacts. He scavenges around until he finds an old-looking tablet and holds it up.
"Woooah! Cool!!" Evan's eyes twinkle with excitement.
Evan's father emerges from further within the room. He sees his son with the tablet that he found. Out of the corner of his eye, Evan sees the moving figure and jumps in surprise. The tablet nearly slips out of his hands and Harvey starts towards his son.
"AH!" Evan yelps.
"Hey, be careful with that! That was one of the hardest-to-find pieces I have ever acquired!" Harvey frowns, his arms akimbo.
"Sorry...!" Evan fumbles with the tablet before sheepishly handing it to his father. Harvey slowly goes to grab it and then he smirks at Evan in amusement. Harvey starts analyzing the relic in his hand.
"I never told you the story of how I got this little relic, did I?"
Harvey grabs with his other hand his well-loved explorers' hat from a desk nearby. He then gently places it on Evan's head. It is too big for him, but the grin that appears on his face shines through the shadow of the hat.
"Please, tell it!" Encouraged Evan.
"Hmm... Maybe I should tell you when I get back from my trip instead..." Harvey teases. Evan's face falls as the joke flies right over his head.
"Aw, what!? Come on! I want to hear it now though!" Evan insisted. Harvey looks at his relic and pretends that he is analyzing it.
"Hmm..." Harvey gives a faux-dramatic pause as Evan tips the back of the hat down a bit and looks at his father with puppy dog eyes.
Harvey grabs a chair and turns it around to sit down on it facing it back to front so he can lean forward on it and tell his story.
"So, there we were. I and 4 of the lads stumbled upon a very mysterious cave, unknown to anyone in the Amazon Rain Forest, or the world for that matter! Myself, Marvin, Josh, and Bill," Harvey explains.
In the meantime, Evan plonks himself down on a dusty cushion whilst keeping eye contact with Harvey and loses all focus around him as he is mesmerized and drawn in by his father's story.
"I'd like to say I was the fearless leader of the group as I miraculously rappelled into the cave first." Harvey continued. Harvey looks kind of smug, relishing in this white lie.
"Anyway! As the others rappelled down, I had a quick look at my surroundings. The place around me looked alienated and made by no man!" Harvey observed. Evan looks shocked.
"No way!" Evan's jaw dropped.
Harvey grabs his journal off the desk and opens to a page full of strange symbols he had drawn when the expedition in his story happened.
"There were symbols all along the cave walls. Nothing like anything I have come to know in my whole life! Marvin pointed out that only one tunnel led deeper into the depths of the cave, which seemed to have some sort of preserved archway entrance. All of us proceeded down this route. Until we came to another opening. This room was enormous! Inside were some preserved building work. What kind of life or tribe lived here before?! That's when I found this baby sitting in the middle of the room." Told Harvey.
Harvey holds up the relic. "It sat on a podium and felt like a reaction was happening as I got closer to it! I laid my hands upon it and started to turn it in place. A sudden rumble filled the cave and then!... Bill pointed out a small ominous glowing light within the building. The light... just drew us all in. We were like flies being attracted to it. Closer and closer we got until... we saw it."
"Saw what?!" Evan asked eagerly.
Harvey leans forward on the chair.
"We saw..." Harvey paused.
"Taxi is here, honey!" Carey announced unexpectedly out of nowhere. Harvey stands up.
"Well, I guess this story can continue at a later date!" Harvey quickly interrupts his story. Evan's face drops once again.
"Whaaaat!? But you were just about to tell me what you found!" Evan complains.
"Don't worry, I will tell you as soon as I get back. It will give you something to look forward to!" Harvey responded.
Harvey lays down the relic gently on his desk and then takes his hat off of Evan's head, and puts it on his head. Harvey and Carey slowly walk downstairs and stand ready next to the front door to say their goodbyes. Evan slowly follows behind them whilst also picking up the relic and holding it with both hands.
"I don't get why I can't come with you. The last few times I couldn't come with you!" snivels Evan. Harvey is starting to pick up his last pieces of luggage and supplies to get ready to go on his trip at the front door in the main hallway.
"Aww, Evan, you know this trip is important to his work and his colleagues," Carey reminded sternly. Harvey finishes picking up his stuff in the meantime.
"And, this is going to be dangerous this time around! Very soon I will make sure that you're both with me for our next adventure!" Guaranteed Harvey. Evan feels a little unsure.
"Hmm... Promise?" Evan asked.
"I promise," Harvey promised.
Harvey notices the relic in Evan's hands which reminds him to take it with him. He kneels until he is face-to-face with Evan.
"Oh! Thanks for reminding me. I almost forgot it!" Harvey pats Evan's head.
Evan passes over the relic to his father. Harvey sees that Evan is still a bit upset so he tries to make him feel better.
"You'll be a great adventurer one day and will find so many treasures! But the best treasure I personally ever uncovered... was you, son! You already make me so proud." Harvey heartwarmingly said.
Evan smiles gently. Harvey also smiles and starts to rustle Evan's hair. Harvey then slowly begins to stand up again.
"I love you both so much!" Harvey smiled.
Carey in the background opens the front door to the house. Harvey in the meantime regathers his belongings and gets ready to leave the house. On the way past Carey and Harvey give each other a goodbye kiss.
"See you, sweetheart," Harvey whispered romantically to Carey.
"Safe journey honey! Message me as soon as you arrive!" Carey smiled and instructed.
Harvey starts to walk outside and towards the taxi. Evan gives a small wave as he comes to stand next to his mother in the door frame. Carey looks down at Evan.
"Don't worry! We can get up to a lot of mishaps here too! Why don't we..." Carey's voice drifts off and becomes unintelligible as the speed of events becomes inconsistent. Evan's father disappears as he enters the taxi and the whole scene in front of Evan fades to black, and—
