Africa, round 1920: Hector Fabry, the great adventurer, is dying from malaria. A strange figure kneels down next to him and puts his hand on his forehead. The next moment Hector is alive and well! The strange man who saved his life is following him now — Hector gives him a name: Okapi. And one has ever seen an odd man like Okapi before. This strange man needs help. He is from another place in time and he is suffering from a deadly disease. Only Hector can help him — he has to travel back in time, to legendary Legio, and come back with the right medicine to save Okapi. And so Hector ends up in Legio, 10.000 years BC, and must try to survive in this crazy civilization...
