Season 1:
While on an archeological dig of secret Chinese tombs, Nick's epic adventure begins by a "chance" meeting with Kwan Ying, a beautiful goddess sent by the Terracotta Warriors (who recognize Nick as the "Scholar from Above") to recruit him for the heroic task of rescuing the manuscript within 3 days -- or face the world's end.
The goddess Kwan Ying recruits former China-scholar Nick Orton to help her take back a magical manuscript from evil demons.
