Noctumba has to be stopped. His unbridled powers and quest to control the earth are altering the world's energies and upsetting nature's balance. Only one can challenge Noctumba and prevent the ruin. Kintu is the chosen one but he is just beginning to learn about the Regions of Influence—the forces of nature. The Inner Kingdom is desperate and the Lore elders must guide Kintu through his time of Molta—his time of maturing, and help him realize his special powers and abilities. Kintu must draw his strength from the Influence, confront Noctumba and take away his power. But Noctumba is not alone; he has recruited others and Kintu is lost as to whom he can trust. The young Lore, alone, faces a challenge beyond his imagination.Noctumba has to be stopped.
