Third Eye of The Shaman
By a mysterious turn of destiny, a boy steps into the sun and disappears. In a different time and space, awakened already as a grown-up shaman, he sends his soul on a journey to the sky. Step by step in a spiritual world, it learns how to walk and see things the way they really are. And while the shaman is in a deep meditation, his soul gets stalked by the demon who wants to steal it.
