With every turn of its thousands of gears beneath the earth, the world is slowly changing, but not for the better - at least not for Mankind.Frederick has discovered that Fafnir seeks yet another relic - the Eye of Odin, through which he will gain the power to see all the paths of time, and so shape the course of history and the future to his own ends.Now he is faced with the choice of either rescuing Colleen, who has been taken away by a giant, or trying to stop Fafnir from fulfilling his mad intentions for all the worlds.Colleen too is launched on her greatest adventure yet. She has been carried deep into the Beyond, the land where Grandpa has gone, and finds it to be a wondrous land of beauty and mystery.
