During a scientific expedition to the South Pacific island of Ponape, Dr. Walter Goodwin investigates ancient megalithic ruins. Discovering a glowing portal beneath a subterranean chamber—the Moon Pool—Goodwin and his team enter a vast, hollow world hidden deep beneath the Earth's crust.

Exploring subterranean biomes, the expedition discovers an ancient civilization locked in conflict between the angelic "Shining One" and the predatory "Dweller." To escape back to the surface, the team must navigate subterranean wars and decode advanced ancient energy sciences.
