    ''With a group of heroes gradually growing around him, Dash returns to the Forest Realm, treading in the ancient footpaths of those who came before, and many truths are at last revealed. The Three are something built into reality itself, a naturally occurring cosmic phenomenon, and their destiny takes priority over all other things. The Brain intends to destroy both good and evil, but countless of its unknowing instruments fill the universe. It is unclear what fate would befall all those associated with good and evil should the Brain succeed. It could mean the destruction of all intelligent life in the cosmos. To protect the people of Deluuvius, Dash and his friends choose to oppose the unknown by physically imprisoning the Three. But doubt within the group begins to grow as the cosmic drama unfolds.''
