The Hidden Kingdom is an adventure that follows the escapades of Suzu and Hogart, two bumbling fortune-seekers in a vibrant fantasy-western world. While searching for lost treasure, they magically raise the hidden kingdom of Tavter and unearth the coveted Land Elemental Gemstone-one of four Elemental Gemstones that, when combined, can open portals to new worlds, dimensions, and planes of existence. Suddenly, their quest for riches transforms into a desperate race for survival. They must evade the clutches of the ruthless Keldace Vildan, Empress of Zamana, and her ambitious commander, Tomap Sruz, who crave the Gemstone's power. Along the way, they join forces with a mysterious young woman and an enigmatic man with his own agenda. From dinosaur attacks and skyship pirates to a climactic horse race with the fate of the world hanging in the balance, Suzu and Hogart must somehow escape their pursuers with the aid of their new friends and prevent the Empress from continuing to enslave countless innocents.
