Celebrate Lunar New Year with a Mystery that Needs a Force for Good! The world has lost its glow, and the most colorful celebration of the year is in trouble! Join Seby, the magically-messy Ambassador of the Animal Kingdom, and Leri, the ever-so-royal Guardian of the Inner Glow, as they race to solve The Case of the Missing Red. Along the way, you'll discover the magic of Lunar New Year (from lucky dumplings to ancient legends) as the duo follows a mysterious ink trail to restore the light before the fireworks begin.
But to succeed, they'll need more than just magic. They'll need to help:
- A Sky Dragon who is (shhh, don't tell) terrified of heights.
- A Dancing Lion who has lost his inner beat.
- And a mysterious shadowy creature lurking in the mountain caves.
