The peoples of the world have been in conflict for as long as time can remember. It is easy to feel cynical about any prospect of lasting peace in the world when we do nothing more than recycle past mistakes. What if we took another path?

The belief and courage of a young girl sets in motion a series of events that just might change the course of history for the Sunflowers and the Nightowls. Could the key to their destiny be ours as well?
