When an evil and dangerous intruder forces her to flee her underground Sanctuary, Eva ventures to the surface for the first time in her life.  Aboveground in a strange new world, Eva finds herself hunted by an unrelenting alien, but, luckily, she makes some interesting new friends that help her to safety and aid her in uncovering the mystery of WondLa.
