Charles, Jaclyn and Jessica are no strangers to school-yard harassment, but when the ill-tempered Nicolas Carter moves to Chatsweye at the beginning of term, they realise their troubles have only just begun.
Still, they endure. With a little under a year to go, they muddle through their laborious schooldays, trying all the while to steer clear of Nicolas--an almost impossible task as it appears he has dedicated his life solely to making theirs a misery.
But when a freak storm descends and sees all four adolescents plunged into the local river, they find themselves in a world far beyond their own.
Despite a warm welcome with open arms and friendly faces, they are stranded in a strange, foreign land, with seemingly no way of returning to Earth. Will they ever see their world again? Their home? Their families?
Struggling with their situation, the children are further dismayed to discover the world in which they are now trapped is slowly dying. An ancient evil writhes in an endless void, the seals of its prison weakening day by day. Its corruption seeps from deep below, draining the life from all it touches --draining the world itself.
The children can't lose another home, not so soon, not when the faintest hope of returning to it still flickers. But are what they to do? How can they join the fight against an ancient horror in a foreign land? What power could four mere children possibly yield?
With friends by their sides, and allies old and new? More than they can possibly imagine.

...I can't write this description to save my life lol.
A small (but obvious) heads-up: This story is under construction and constant revision, and as such will be subject to both frequent and sporadic (but mostly minor) changes, especially in earlier chapters. This is like a public 1st draft because I'm silly like that :D. You have been warned!
