Plot[]
Deep in the jungle, the happy Kikurians and their village are in terrible danger. The volcano nearby the village is on the verge of erupting, because Scylla has got Don Croco to block the top of the volcano with a giant rock. The Kikurians need to find a solution fast, otherwise the village will be buried by lava and the Kikurians will become extinct. The village elders pore over ancient tomes looking for good advice. The answer is three magic Sunstones. Placed in the right way and with the sun shining on them, the Sunstones together create a powerful ray which can destroy the giant rock at the top of the volcano. But the Kikurians need a hero to help them out - Hugo is the chosen one!
