Synopsis

Omer is a small worm that lives on Earth with his friend Hoot, cook and philosopher owl. The Earth is in the grip of evil and the hope still lives in the prophecy that foretells the coming of a savior, the "Son of the Star". One day, a diamond comes down from heaven and enlightens Omer. The latter becomes glowworm and acquires the power to fly. At the same time appears the diamond, Dan, one that the prophecy says he is the son of the star. At first Dan is very awkward, he does not know much about life; both animals are then responsible for their education and realize very quickly of its major powers. With the help of Aum (the blind and wise old monkey head) and Stella (starfish), they try to save Syrena (Mermaid) and destroy the evil power embodied by the terrible Morkhan the cruel and Veranda "Tarches 7" (monsters representatives of stupidity): I I (Bigego) the vain, the polluter Virus, Bobard the liar, the coward Jitters, Mok scoffer, Melo and the pessimist the lazy Ronflette .
