Prince Day regulates the light over all the earth, but since he has been ill, mysterious spots have appeared in the sky, and war has spread everywhere. During a moonlit night, Belinda, Teresa and Constance meet in the thick of a forest, not knowing how they got there. They could not be more different, in age and character, yet they must team up and journey together through the forest, fraught with danger and enemies, to bring medicine to Prince Day. Each has a story to tell-a story about transformations, monsters, girls meeting monsters, and girls becoming monsters. During this dark journey, they will discover that shadows are part of us and that a story can sometimes save your life.
