When Marco is sent to a boarding school, he meets a fellow student named The Rat, who becomes his closest friend. The two boys discover a secret room in the school where they find a map that leads them to a hidden garden. In the garden, they meet a mysterious woman who tells them about Samavia and the struggle for freedom.
