Synopsis
In a land where men have not yet walked the earth, Chauntecleer — a rooster by name and in spirit — rules his flock with pride and an easy temper. His world is one of simple order until it is invaded by Wyrm, an ancient evil trapped beneath the earth's crust since before time began, who seeks to break free and consume everything above. As the two forces collide across a vast, primordial landscape, Chauntecleer must confront his own flaws while fighting to save his world from total annihilation.
