Have you ever wondered where all those legends about magnificent, mythical creatures came from? Yeah, haven't we all, it's in human nature, to tell stories, some are used to scare children into being good, others to inspire people and others are told to give people hope in a dark and dangerous world. It all depends on the story doesn't it? But what if these so called stories came from the truth, what if once these creatures actually existed? What if they still survive in our world, but only just, these creatures have been hunted for years and now few remain.
Now only eight remain, Dragon, Pegasus, Quetzalcoatl, Gryphon, Manticore, Hippogriff, Phoenix and Roc, these creatures are all that remain of their species but what makes it worse? They have yet to hatch, eight eggs, on display in a museum for all to see, no-one thinking anything special of these eggs, donning them as fossilized eggs of an extinct creature and, in a way, they are correct. But what happens when eight kids, teenager, visit this museum with their school, eight kids who's destinies are inevitably entangled with these winged creatures? It appears that another tale, another legend is about to be written in our modern age, in our technology ridden age. How will these teens and their new found companions fare, especially when they are all being hunted from within? Two members of this group will betray them but who and why? I guess myths and legends do come true after all...
