Il Mondo Perduto
"I have noticed that if you look carefully at people’s eyes the first five seconds they look at you, the truth of their feelings will shine through for just an instant before it flickers away."
- Sue Monk Kidd
Josephina Moriarty had known she was different since the day she had been born. For she had seen a world that no one else could imagine. This world was cold and decrepit and yet she felt safe, unlike the feeling she gets going through everyday life. To her, Earth is just another cage ready to bind her at any moments notice.
The world is called Il Mondo Perduto which translates to mean The Lost World. And in this world, many travel, but all are forbidden to stay. Much like any other world, there are rules that must be followed. If they aren't followed, you will be executed.
It's in this world that Josephina must find the one called The Eye. The Eye lives in the building in the middle of the forest. This building is sacred and only can the ones blessed with the gift go in. If it is touched by anyone without the gift, The Eye will vanish and shall never be seen from again.
Josephina must make haste if she is to reach The Eye on time. For if she doesn't succeed, she will never step foot on Earth again. She will become trapped in The Lost World forever.
