Deep under the surface of Terrarestria, thousands of humans are hiding from the dragon threats above. They have been for generations, and will for generations to come.

But a group of juveniles (Pyrite, Sapphire, Turquoise, Jade, and Alex) who have never seen the surface find themselves out of the caves and shoved into an adventure that they did not want, in a world they did not want to be a part of.

It appears that the dragons are at war, split between two sides, and they want humans to use against the other tribes. And on top of that, a mystical prophecy foretelling the fate of the world is proclaimed about the young teens. Who is Zaerux? Will the humans ever get to go home?
