"His music was swept up in a gust,
And blew through the door with a thrust.
To the woods, Lane gave chase,
Till he ran to someplace;
A part of the woods not to trust."
Join Lane, a young violinist, who finds himself too anxious to improvise and play from the heart. Unluckily for him, his music just up and blew away! Upon chasing his sheet music into the woods, Lane quickly realizes that he no longer recognizes his surroundings - weirder yet, this new place and it's inhabitants seem to completely lack passion or creativity! Explore, run, jump, and play your violin through multiple locations in order to uncover the mystery of this strange place. Can Lane, with the help of his violin, reignite these people's passion once more?
