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, as the stars twinkle in the night sky, Moko is thinking of his village. Totemie asks him if she can join him in his quest for the end of the world. The next morning they leave Totemie's village and find their way to a desert where they find strange mountains and a bizarre twisting valley, deep and narrow, that seems to go on forever. A man crosses their path and tells them that only the pure of heart and courageous ever find the end of the deep valley. Filled with courage they set off to find it. Moko plays his flute and the mountains echo leads their way through the canyon's maze.
