'Who am I?' 'Where am I?' 'Why am I here?' With these questions Calum roused himself, touching his bloody head that had no memory of his whereabouts. Is That Me? He asked himself, seeing his reflection in the water of the clear, clean pond. Bemused, he found himself in front of a large door that lured him into entering. Unable to resist that impulse, Calum found himself drawn deeper into the mysterious cavern, where he received a most startling charge: "We have searched for you, Calum, searched for someone who has the ability. You must save GAIA from the evil that comes for her." Thus begins the saga of GAIA, as Calum, a young lad, is designated to be the savior of this unknown planet. The only positive is that he will have the aid of a series of dubious gods with varied mystical powers, in addition to a young race of GAIAns that may or may be of help. Would that be enough? And who is the enemy that had gods of their own?
