Back from their long journey to help the giant Iron Lions resolve their conflict with Val ka'Yoom, Jayden Blue and Raylene Hawkins feel the exhaustion of their adventures in their World So Close. But another week of school is waiting for them, and Jayden's cats, Hex and Halo, simply must have a new set of games to play every day before school. They might never again see school, their classmates, their teachers, or even the bus driver as they had before. Just after they'd returned, they noticed right away that Jayden's parents caused some peculiar recollections from their recent journey. It's a lot to figure out. Knowing that they aren't yet ready to confront Val ka'Yoom again, Jayden and Raylene instead balance their days between school and their World So Close. At school, Jayden is pursuing a new direction: auditioning for the upcoming school play. Raylene is focused on the art contest and wondering if her new appreciation of colors holds the key to the paintings that she creates. To help Jayden and Raylene accept the courage that they know is already a part of them-they only need to claim it-the Iron Lions encourage them to visit a special place in the World So Close. It's a dark corner of that world, a place where fear is waiting in every shadow: The Forest of Night Fallen.
