Тайные общества и поиски бессмертия, древние книги, старинные типографии, подземные читальные залы, пыльные склады потерянных артефактов и блестящие хранилища данных "Гугла", зубодробительные шифры, визуализация данных, настоящий квест, настоящая дружба, многообещающая любовь и, как ни странно, драконы.
