Can Sanchi, Monchie, and friends defeat the evil knights known as Erebus, and bring peace to the villages? A timeless tale of good versus evil, Sanchi & Monchie and The Magic Whiskers features two young orphans, and their mission to restore peace. After Erebus attacks their parents, Sanchi and Monchie are left homeless and alone. Then Spirit Bird appears to explain that the orphans have been chosen for a very special mission—to defeat the evil knights. Together with Spirit Bird; a wise cat named Meogic; and Fire Dragon, the orphans set out with three magic whiskers as their only weapon. To summon strength and courage against Erebus, Sanchi and Monchie sing—and remember their parents' strong love and wisdom. Filled with action, and including the words and music to Sanchi and Monchie's song, “Le, Lo.”
