His name was Clifford Snow and he had a mission. Find a cabin high on the top of Mount Charleston. There he was to wait for a sign.
It started with a strange meeting with a Paiute Shaman, who gave him a very unusual ruby spirit stone. Embellished with powers that he couldn't understand at the time, he accepted the stone.

From that point he was driven to travel to the cabin, where he unwittingly opens up a doorway to the past. As he does, he finds himself in the middle of a life or death struggle with a huge tidal wave and an incredible monster from another time and space that is carrying off an Indian Princess.

His mission: Defeat the monster and save the Moon Princess.
