The story is set in pre-Columbian America, and follows the journey of a young Native American named Kosa, who is part of the Mound Builder civilization. Kosa is sent on a mission by his tribe to find out what happened to their neighboring tribe, who have mysteriously disappeared. Along the way, Kosa encounters various obstacles and challenges, including rival tribes, dangerous animals, and natural disasters. Through his quest, Kosa learns about the history and culture of the Mound Builders, and uncovers the truth behind the vanished empire.
