"You are one of the fourteen chosen to protect our world, Corsalin."
Somewhere In The Early 21st Century (Magiwood, U.S.A.):
Fourteen middle schoolers were about to enjoy summer vacation. However, they get whisked away to the fantasy planet, Corsalin.
One of them is a girl named Casey Nellon.
When Casey wakes up after the trip. She meets a female Corsalin [Fire type] phoenix named Penya. And sees that her sisters, Sally and Rory are separated from her. When Casey questions Penya about the place... Penya says Coresalin was a fairly peaceful planet... Up till 100 years ago.
Casey isn't sure about where her sisters were... Along with who the other thirteen were (but possibly her sisters were two of them).
While looking for them with Penya... They meet another human and animal of Corsalin. Except the animal is a male axolotl (also known as a water/aquatic salamander), named Saru. And the human is neither of her sisters nor were they another girl.
Instead, it was a boy her age from the same middle school as her, Bazil Jett.
What is this planet Coresalin anyway?! And where were the other twelve chosen?! Who were they all (regardless of Sally and Rory were likely two of them)?!
And why were they summoned here, to begin with?!
Also... Who or what are these creatures known as, the Tohmos? And who is their leader?
And The Legendary Enchanted Stones...? Why are they so important to find? How many are there? Where are they?
...What exactly are they?!
