A young man named Slither Snake creates a farming commune know as "Arraborough" on a small patch of isolated land, and he and his friends find themselves embarked on a road to an unimaginable future.
Yet nothing is what it seems. The land itself is far from benign. It comes with a mysterious caretaker named Fespin Squirrel who issues confusing warnings about the nearby impenetrable forest and the foreboding caverns lying underneath the surface.
The denizens are a disparate bunch. True agendas remain hidden, and none more so than those of two mystery figures distinguished by abnormal coloration and gem-like eyes: Pimlico Calico, who oversees the final stages of the commune's construction; and Dovan Blue Dog, who hopes a stay in Arraborough will awaken memories of a lost life and his role in an unknown war being waged for dominion of the entire animal planet itself.
