Official Press Release:
An old man struggles to run through the jungle, his eyes filled with fear. Pounding feet are chasing him down. He nears the treehouse just as a huge creature, all teeth and claws, leaps from the jungle and knocks him down. Roxton grabs his rifle and fires on the creature killing it. Veronica runs over to where the ancient one is lying. In his hand he holds a small gold locket with Veronica's picture in it. Sinta dies speaking her name. Veronica explains that Sinta was her parents guide eleven years ago. How did he get to be so old when he was only eighteen when Veronica last saw him? In the pocket of the old man they find a hand drawn map. Their journey leads the group to a hidden archway cut into a rock face. It is guarded by a giant horned lizard which they manage to move away and pass the archway. What they find is a world beyond their understanding. A world that is seductive enough to push loyalty to its breaking point with temptation. A paradise of beauty, art, drama and food. They also discover that the beast guarding the doorway was not there to keep people out... but to keep them in.
