Short synopsis : Who is Sheeta, the little girl with the magic stone pendant that is coveted by all? Held prisoner onboard an airship, she is kidnapped by a gang of sky pirates led by the colourful Dora, then by a militia working for Muska, a Machiavellian gentleman far too smooth to be trusted. Rescued by the young boy named Pazu, Sheeta hides out in a mining town. Here, together, they will try to discover the mysterious origins of the stone and prove that the miraculous floating island of Laputa is not a legend but very real…
