In a land where little life exists and is covered in dead trees and smog, there lays a tall stone tower. There are two beings inhabiting the tower. A tall, robe wearing, hunchbacked humanoid creature called the Draai and a young woman called Alyona. Alyona is stuck at the top of the tower, unable to call for help due to being cursed with the inability to speak. The only way she can call for help is with he use of a magic flute, whose melodies can travel far distances.

We are then brought to an elven village, where we are brought into the home of a particular elf by the name of Dimitri, he is seen trying to slice fruit with a homemade sword in the air. He attempts to do the stunt, but fails. Disappointed in failing the stunt, Dimitri is called to dinner by his mother.

During dinner, him and his mother talk about Dimitri's future and what he plans to do with his life.

Later that day, Dimitri heads off to a lake and starts stone skipping, during it, Dimitri begins to hear Alyona's melodies. Believing the melodies are coming from the opposite side of the lake, he calls out for the player, but no response. He calls a little more, but still no response, curious but disappointed, he returns back home.

The next day during dinner again, Dimitri tells his mother about the whistle melodies he heard, his mother shows some interest, recalling how she once heard melodies of an instrument by the lake Dimitri heard the whistle at as a child. Later that night, Dimitri is seen crafting a sword, planning to explore the local forest for the melodies.

In the morning, he starts to explore the forests, telling his family that he doesn't know when he'll be back.

While exploring the forests, the melodies come back to Dimitri, who starts to follow the sound through the forests, but as he explores the area, it begins to rain, and the sounds of the rain start to drown out the melodies. Now lost in the forest, he explores on and on for shelter as the rain grows harsher.

He eventually finds a small bar, one that goes by the name of "The Cocoa Bean". He enters it, and is greeted to the site of many people of many ages, drinking cocoa beverages on tables made from cocoa tree wood with small cocoa trees on the cocoa tables. Silence immediately enters the bar, all looking at Dimitri. He walks to the bartender and asks for soup, then coffee and then even some tea, but they don't have any. The bar only sells the best quality chocolate beverages.

The bartender then asks what brings Dimitri to the bar, and he explains the melodies of the whistle, and the bartender expresses surprise, thinking that the melodies came from a nearby cabin. Then, someone expresses interest and calls Dimitri to talk at the table they're at, this someone is a new character, Fio, a bipedal deer who works at the bar, bringing in supplies.

Dimitri sits at the table, and Fio tells Dimitri about the legend of the Draai, a creature that preys on young women for their life force, before he can tell any more of the Draai's origins, a person in the bar starts choking and convulsing on their beverage, more so like an allergic reaction then general choking, they then suddenly die on the spot. The bartender then immediate grabs a tub of cocoa and rips the label off, the cocoa that the man died from was actually a tub of coffee.

Everyone in the bar then sets their eyes on Fio, with complete looks of disgust, Fio only looks a little surprised. Dimitri and Fio slowly exit the bar, and they seem to have exited scott free. But then without hesitation, everyone in the bar bursts out and chase the two with pitchforks, they eventually lose the mob, and Fio guides Dimitri to what he calls his "mansion".

They get there, and turns out it's just a large cabin. The two enter the cabin and are greeted by Faleno, a bipedal moth.
