Are you a sunflower too?

Well, it does not really matter. Today is a calm day. The wind is warm. I do not know why I am alive, but do you want to look at the sun together with me?

- I am a sunflower."

Constantly on the run as a fearful refugee from a brutal hobgoblin war, Burch finds an odd, self-aware sunflower during her escape.

In a frantic bid for survival, the two of them journey together across a dark, frightening and magic filled world in their desperate pursuit of what might be the only place of safety and warmth left anywhere, a place heard of only in whispers; Paradise.

However, frightful danger lurks in every shadowy corner and time is against them, as the hobgoblin horde on their trail, feverishly hunting after Burch, comes closer and closer by the day. Why is Burch on the run and why are the hobgoblins in pursuit of her? Who or what is ‘the sunflower’? And most importantly — assuming that Paradise is real, will they even survive the journey there?
