Connie has immense power. The trouble is she doesnt really know how to use it & nobody in the Society for the Protection of Mythical Beasts has enough knowledge to train her. Only one being understands Connies potential
- the evil shapeshifter Kullervo. Unknown to Connie he has started infiltrating her dreams causing her to raise devastating storms in her sleep. Now when shes awake the dark side of Connies power increasingly feels more attractive than the good side. When Connies best friend Col discovers what is happening he begs Connie to seek help. She turns to the Society the group meant to protect her. But they are terrified by what she tells them & expel her. Feeling abandoned & scared Connie hides in an old mine
- & finds she is not alone. The mine is full of sick mythical creatures that the Society has forgotten. They are led by the once-proud Minotaur who having been blinded in a fight is now a broken soul. The Minotaur gives Connie the courage to face her demons & in doing so begins to heal himself. Could it be that Connie & the Minotaur along with Col & the sick creatures have the strength to battle Kullervo while the Society for the Protection of Mythical Beasts stands ineffectually by?
