The story is centered around two young children who are stranded on a mysterious and dangerous planet following a catastrophic event aboard their spaceship. Their journey explores themes of childhood innocence, creativity, and the clash between their imaginative world and the potential threat posed by adult desires and ambitions. The narrative follows Robin Sinclair and Charlie Fullerton, two children who escape a disaster that takes the lives of hundreds aboard their starship, landing them on the vivid and perilous planet known as Crimson. Here, they possess the extraordinary ability to manifest their wishes into reality, allowing them to create a diverse world filled with pirates, cowboys, and various fantastical beings. However, as they encounter a group of space explorers, including the ambitious Glaudot, the story takes a darker turn. Glaudot's desire to exploit their creative powers for personal gain forces Robin and Charlie into a conflict that tests their friendship and moral compass. Ultimately, they must navigate threats from both the monsters they imagined, such as the Cyclopes, and the adults seeking to control them, raising profound questions about power, creativity, and the responsibilities that come with it.
