His mother is a perfectionist from a little English village, and his father was born of Royal blood in England. The family maintained their old family traditions and their lifestyle followed the protocols which had been observed by the family for centuries. Rafi's father arranged for Rafi to visit his grandparents' home in the countryside for his summer holiday. His adventures were just beginning when he discovered a cave hidden by decades of overgrowth on the mountainside near his grandparents' home. The cave had quite a history as he was soon to find out. It wasn't an ordinary cave and it led Rafi on his magical journey into another world, transforming him and changing his life completely through his experiences inside the cave which he discovered was equivalent to the inner workings of our brain.
