Father wants Niko to continue his work in the Flying Forces – a wonderful job to have adventures, free time, be admired and live life of a celebrity. Then again, his mother wants Niko to be a guardian and protector of the home herd at the secret valley – a wonderful job to have responsibility and be a respected member of the community. Niko can´t have both – and nobody actually asks what the boy himself wants... On the way to wild North Niko faces enemies and friends, and slowly begins to realize what it is he himself really wants to do, what is his place and mission in life. With a happy ending!
