She grew up listening to her brothers tell a family legend that had been handed down through many generations. A story that she was not part of. The legend promised that someday a brilliant orb of light would appear. And, on that day a mystical transformation would take place. A selected ancestor of the ancient past would find a special person, and together they would travel to a place beyond tomorrow. Now, Desy's world was about to come to an end.

As Desy sat and cried under a scraggly tree, she unknowingly wrapped her fingers around a shiny stone fragment. Suddenly, her world spun and disappeared, leaving her swirling inside a purple mist. When she stopped spinning, she found herself somewhere just beyond tomorrow.
