Moko is an explorer. As he travels the world continent by continent, he makes many friends and discovers many natural phenomena which sometimes delight him, and other times scare him. Each animated episode recounts an adventure and takes an "original story" approach to explaining these natural phenomena. In this episode, in the middle of the day, the sun gradually vanishes. Moko is frightened and wonders what wizard could do such a thing. With the village wise man, they set out to find the sorcerer who made the sun disappear. They question all the sorcerers they know but fail to find the one responsible for such an act. So they decide to join all the people of their village and the neighboring villages and watch the sky. An old woman watches them, smiling. She explains that when she was a child the same thing happened, but that the world would become normal again. And indeed the sun returned at the end of the solar eclipse. Moko told himself that perhaps the sun was simply tired and for once decided to go off and take a nap.

Moko is an explorer. As he travels the world continent by continent, he makes many friends and discovers many natural phenomena which sometimes delight him, and other times scare him. Each animated episode recounts an adventure and takes an "original story" approach to explaining these natural phenomena. In this episode, Moko wonders why the moon changes shape so often. Sometimes, when he sees the moon rising in the distance like the sun, he thinks that by walking towards the horizon he could get closer and find out more. That way he could even ask the moon itself. During his long walk towards the ever-receding horizon, Moko watches the moon constantly changing shape. Sometimes it's a crescent like a smile, sometimes a disc of light; sometimes it's white, sometimes yellowish. It travels across the sky but you can't see it moving. One night, Moko decides to watch the moon perform its lovely dance among the stars. He figures he'll never reach the horizon, and in fact maybe the moon just wants to put on a show, to be watched more often.

Each animated episode recounts an adventure and takes an "original story" approach to explaining these natural phenomena. In this episode, Alarick's country is very strange. It has been many days now that night has not fallen, and no one seems to be worried. Moko decides to head towards the horizon to see what is keeping the sun from setting and Alarick goes with him. Along the way, Moko tries to lull the sun to sleep with a lullaby from his country. The sun looks like it will set, but stops short and rises again. Perhaps the ocean is frozen at the horizon and is keeping the sun from setting. He decides to ask the fishermen and one of them responds that the world is filled with such mysteries and that it is more precious for him to learn the secrets of his friend than that of the sun.

Each animated episode recounts an adventure and takes an "original story" approach to explaining these natural phenomena. In this episode, it is night time and Moko is watching the shooting stars from Totemie's village and is remembering how he once thought that a lady blew the stars in the sky from the embers of her bonfire. And suddenly, an immense star, a huge ball of fire, appears from the sky and falls to the depths of the forest. Totemie and Moko take off to see where the meteorite has landed and discover that a huge flaming rock has made a hole the size of a volcano's crater in the ground and is setting fire to the forest around it. Totemie is scared that the sky is angry and Moko, who remembers Mei Li begins to dance like she did while playing Alarick's flute. It begins to rain and slowly the flames die down. Moko thinks that the clouds must have seen him dance and heard his flute and come to save his new friend's land.
