A land, split equally in half, is ruled by two children.

The child of the light harnesses the sun and all the creatures belonging to it.

The child of the dark dwells in the moonlight and gives life to night.

When the Moon and Sun's sides bleed into each other, hybrids are formed belonging of dark and light.

How can both children see past thier differences and learn to co-exist?
