Many years ago, before you were born, before your parents were born and before their parents were born, there was a strange and magical land called Quinkanna. Quinkanna was a peaceful land ruled by the kindest King and Queen ever to have lived. The King and Queen lived peacefully with their two young children; Prince Benjamin the Wild and Princess Jessica the Wise. The last time their land had been threatened was during the Great Dragon War when the fiercest dragons had nearly destroyed Quinkanna. No dragon had been seen in Quinkanna for a thousand years. Until now. The discovery of a friendly dragon cub in the land followed by a mysterious illness that befalls the beautiful Princess Jessica threatens to destroy the happiness that had been bestowed on the land for so many years. When the wisest healers in the land are unable to cure the child it falls to the brave little dragon cub to take on an incredible quest to save her, and all of Quinkanna, from the threat of the Wonambi Dragons!
