It's 1899, and Jacques Moulin is joining an expedition funded by Newton Prescott. The goal is to be the first people to reach South Pole. Expedition on its own seems like a lucrative deal, but there is talk of ancient civilizations, myths and legends which in Jacques' head immediately means there will be even more money in the expedition. Are the legends of an ancient kingdom of Elok true? Is there more to South Pole than just ice? And will the truth about Jacques just being a lying thief be revealed to the rest of the team? Will they make it to the South Pole alive, and will they be able to leave?
