"During the attack, Lord Cockroach and two of his accomplices immobilized Leto with a small bomb, then grabbed him and lifted him into the air. Motionless, the creatures watched that grotesque scene: Leto being carried in a dreadful flight toward the Black Widow's castle."
In the sinister castle of the Black Widow, cockroaches, spiders, and venomous animals live. Nearby, butterflies, bees, earthworms, and small animals live peacefully in the lush forest. Everything was fine until the powerful spider decided to find a new husband since the last one had fled. Enchanted by the beauty of Leto, a butterfly that had just emerged from its cocoon, the spider decides to marry him. The forest insects then come up with a plan to help their friend escape from the terrible marriage. Follow this journey full of dangers and discover how to escape the Black Widow's web.
