Synopsis
An epic tale of destiny, love, and the constellations that bind us. When the Zodiac signs are called to defend the sanctuary that protects all life, alliances will be tested, truths will be shattered, and the stars themselves will tremble.

Scorpio’s loyalty, Pisces’s vision, Sagittarius’s courage, and Gemini’s dual spirit are pushed to their limits as ancient enemies rise from the shadows.
