Giant And The Seed

Impelled by its own curiosity, a little seed stumbles out of its paradise-like habitat and into the heart of danger and desperation. Only if it learns to shed its persona and discover what it truly needs, it might return home and uncover the nature of the gentle Giant that guards over it.
