The story so far
Everything you need before watchingAt a roadside gas station, Ian and Barley try to refuel, grab snacks, and get back on the road. A careless bump turns the stop into a confrontation with a hostile group, while a call reveals what will happen if the brothers take the gem: the Guardian Curse will become a beast. The scene then spirals into a comic argument about wings, ancestors, and the brothers’ very different ideas of courage.
