As Topa walks along a path outside the village, he encounters a large stone that has the shape of a bear. The stone looks so realistic that Topa finds it alarming. He senses that the stone holds a message of importance to his people, the Inca. Topa wants his friend to see the strange stone, so they sneak out of the village and into the night where danger lurks at every turn.

With courage they must devise a bold plan to save the treasure of their people!
