Deep within the volcanic mountains of the Pacific Rim, a team of scientists and explorers unearth signs of an impossible lifeform something ancient, winged, and slumbering beneath the magma. When the volcano erupts, the skies ignite in flame and the world meets Rodan, a colossal pterosaur born of fire and stone. Rodan’s awakening sends shockwaves through the planet, both literally and politically. Nations scramble to weaponize, study, or destroy him. But amid the chaos, Dr. Darius Kaelen, a geologist haunted by his father’s disappearance on the same mountain years ago, believes Rodan isn’t a random mutation — but the last guardian of an ancient ecosystem. As Rodan takes flight across continents, his mere presence triggers superstorms, fire cyclones, and seismic rifts. The world descends into panic — but hidden within Rodan’s path lies a pattern: he is not attacking at random. He is returning to something... or someone. When Mara and her team uncover a buried temple revealing that Rodan once protected humanity from something far worse, they must choose — continue humanity’s war against nature, or trust a creature that may be their only defense against a greater terror stirring beneath the earth.
