Вы встретите здесь ведьм, волков, дриад, людей-оленей, парочку фей и бесчисленное множество духов природы (включая даже дружелюбного зеленого великана). Таинственная извилистая тропинка ведет в волшебные земли через леса, пустыни, горы, города и трущобы. Над головами шепчутся кроны дубов и ясеней, а из теней наблюдают за каждым шагом зеленые существа.

To return to his old life, Richard must join Door on her perilous quest, facing unimaginable dangers and the possibility of death in this surreal underworld.
