    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, on that morning, Moko was helping his friend and the other villagers to cut firewood to heat their homes. Snow begins to fall, and Alarick tells Moko that it would be best if they went back inside. But Moko wants to learn the secret of the snow. He heads toward the mountain. At the summit, he sees large trees bending in the wind and clouds of snow swirling around in the sky. As he makes his way back down to the village, the storm blocks his way and he can go no further. Moko begs with the mountain to let him through, promising to tell no one the mountain's secret. The storm calms and Moko returns to the village. When Alarick asks him what he has learned, Moko tells him that the mountain's secret is not one that can be revealed.
