Owen and Theo encounter a group of creatures that they have never seen before. They kill the creatures and take them back to their land to a group of people known as the Council. The Council monitors everything and everyone who goes in and out of the land. When Owen and Theo bring back the corpses of the creatures that they have killed, they realize quickly that they have made a grave mistake.
